Parents Don't Understand

Woke up this morning, still half asleep,
With one eye open I attempt to brush my teeth,
Go to the closet what should I wear,
Better check the weather before I do my hair,
Next thing I knew from downstairs I hear you
Telling me how to dress, my hair looks bad,
I think you'll never understand me,

Sometimes parents just don't understand that I
Would rather learn from my mistakes,
Then do the things they want me to
For once I wish they knew,

Friday night its party time,
Call up my clique to see what they had in mind (hey!)
Apparently, the place to be
is stuck up in my bedroom watching my TV,
How could I forget I'm grounded once again
I know they'll never understand me

Sometimes parents just don't understand that I
Would rather learn from my mistakes,
Then do the things they want me to
For once I wish they knew,

Don't do this don't do that is all I hear
Inside my head, wouldn't you rather me listen
Than go in one ear and out the other end
For once I wish you'd understand,

Sometimes parents just don't understand
That I would rather learn from my mistakes,
Than do the things they want me too,
For once I wish they knew

Sometimes parents just don't understand that I
Would rather learn from my mistakes,
Then do the things they want me to
For once I wish they knew,
