Tired of Trying, Bored With Lying, Scared of Dying

All you who try to order me and say what I do
I know you want the world to be exactly like you
But why bother, what's the use in it to try

You know I'm tired of trying
Bored with lying and scared of dying

You talk of mods and rockers, and street corner fights
And make you say they are destined
So why bother, what's the use in it to try

You know I'm tired of trying
Bored with lying and scared of dying

The fascists horrify you, they're a sin and a shame
Discrimination, immigration and what's in a name
And why bother, what's the use in it to try, god

You know I'm tired of trying
Bored with lying and scared of dying

You cry about the teenagers for breaking your rules
It don't look good to you, you never built enough schools
And why bother, what's the use in it to try

You know I'm tired of trying
Bored with lying and scared of dying

What do you want me to do
Am I expected to grow up into something like you
So what the hell do you want me to do, eh, eh
But why bother, what's the use in it to try, but

You know I'm tired of trying
Bored with lying and scared of dying

Why won't you tell me, why bother...
