Lyrics

This is a story of a bored teenager
Stuck inside a category line
He had to abide by all the time

Then one day this bored teenager
Got tired of always playing their game
They all want to look the same

But you want to stand out from the crowd
All you do is try, try, try
But you're not ganna get out this time

Get back in line
You're never gonna change the whole world
Get back in the line
Must have been a fool to think that things could change
Get back in line
Rock the ship and get thrown overboard
Get back in the line
Must've been a fool to think you could change the world

This is a story of a bored teenager
Cast outside by different frame of mind
The shallow assemblage he left behind

Sooner or later his boredom turned to anger
Kicked in the face by his so-called friends
A brutal cylcle that never ends

But you want to stand out from the crowd
All you do is try, try, try
But you're not ganna get out this time

Get back in line
You're never gonna change the whole world
Get back in the line
Must have been a fool to think that things could change
Get back in line
Rock the ship and get thrown overboard
Get back in the line
Must've been a fool to think you could change the world

Stay in line
What for?

But you want to stand out from the crowd
All you do is try, try, try
But you're not ganna get out this time

Get back in line
You're never gonna change the whole world
Get back in the line
Must have been a fool to think that things could change
Get back in line
Rock the ship and get thrown overboard
Get back in the line
Must've been a fool to think you could change the world

Rock the ship and get thrown overboard
