Parents Don't Understand

Parents Don't Understand Lyrics

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 it's 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
