I just graduated

Top of my class

Furthest from last

So why do I feel so bad?

Yeah

So why do I feel so bad?

I'm emancipated

Out on my own

Got it under control

So why do I feel so bad?

Yeah, why do I feel so bad?

(You must do what's right) I always do what's right

(Black and white) I think I see a different side

(Toe the line) out

No, I said, hey

A link is breakin' outta the chain

Hey, a link's breakin' outta the chain

I got a feelin' that a break is gonna happen, maybe right now, right now

Come on, go there, surprise me

You, little link in the chain

Punch in, punch out

Bad food, still swallow

Same ripped old jeans

Blind leader, I'd follow

Uh, what does it say about me? What does it say about us?

(I don't know)

Cat's cradle of a lifetime

Is it really like this?

Am I just another jail mate?

Don't listen to him, just listen to me

Yeah, I think a link is b-b-b-b-b-b-breaking free

(You must do what's right) I always do what's right

(Black and white) I think I see a different side

(Toe the line)

I said, hey

A link is breakin' outta the chain

Hey, a link is breakin' outta the chain

I got a feelin' that a break is gonna happen, maybe right now, right now

I see you sittin' like an arrow, never flatter

You, little break in the chain

You, little break in the chain
