"The Anthem" lyrics

"The Anthem"
(originally by Good Charlotte)

It's a new day
But it all feels old
It's a good life
That's what I'm told
But everything, it all just feels the same
And my high school
It felt more to me
Like a jail cell
A penitentiary
My time spent there, it only made me see

That I don't ever wanna be like you
I don't wanna do the things you do
I'm never gonna hear the words you say
And I don't ever wanna

I don't ever wanna be you
Don't wanna be just like you
Oh, what I'm saying is
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You
Don't wanna be you

Go to college
Or university
Get a real job
That's what they said to me
But I could never live the way they want
I'm gonna get by
And just do my time
Outta step while
They all get in line
I'm just a minor threat, so pay no mind

Do you really wanna be like them?
Do you really wanna be another trend?
Do you wanna be part of that crowd?
'Cause I don't ever wanna

I don't ever wanna be you
Don't wanna be just like you
Oh, what I'm saying is
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
You
Don't wanna be you

Shake it once, that's fine
Shake it twice, that's okay
Shake it three times
You're playing with yourself again

You
Don't wanna be just like you
What I'm saying is
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Y'all got to feel me
Sing if you're with me
You
Don't wanna be just like you
(Be just like you)
This is the anthem
Throw all your hands up
Y'all got to feel me
Sing if you're with me
Another loser anthem
(Whoa-oh)
Another loser anthem
(Whoa-oh)
Another loser anthem
(Whoa-oh)
Another loser anthem
