Why should I care if I got to cut my hair?
I got to move with the fashion or be outcast
I know I'm a fight, but my old dad, he's really alright
And I'm still living at home even though it won't last
Zoot suit, white jacket with side vents five inches long
I'm out on the street again and I'm leaping along
I'm dressed right for a beach fight, but I just can't explain
Why that uncertain feeling is still here in my brain
ย
The kids at school, their folks all seem so cool
And though I don't want to hurt 'em, mine seem to want me their way
I clean my room and my shoes, but my mother found a box of blues
And there doesn't seem much hope they'll let me stay
Zoot suit, white jacket with side vents five inches long
I'm out on the street again and I'm leaping along
I'm dressed right for a beach fight, but I just can't explain
Why that uncertain feeling is still here in my brain
Always here in my brain, ah
ย
Why do I have to be different to them
To earn the respect of a dance hall friend?
We have the same old row again and again
Why do I have to move with a crowd
Of kids who only notice when I'm around?
I have to work myself to death just to fit in
I'm coming down, got home on the very last train from town
My dad just left for work, he wasn't talking
It's all a game, and inside I feel just the same
My Friday makes me sick first thing in the morning
ย
My Friday makes me sick first thing in the morning, yeah
ย
You know, I like being hot
ย
You look after me so well
