If only the rules were built upon philosophy that I embraced
I'd hug your neck and kiss your face,
but it's very obvious that your ideals are not for me.
You'll tell me what to do but you will see that I do as I please.

Cause I want to do it my way, and I want to fly,
I want to do it my way, cause I want to fly.

The problem with rules is they alienate the criminals
when whose to say if what they did was wrong that day.
If you'd open your mind up you'd see that there is nothing that's always wrong.
No matter what you say,
it's just not true that there's only one way.

Cause I want to do it my way, cause I want to fly,
I want to do it my way, and I want to fly.

I hope we have ourselves an understanding.
I hope we have ourselves an understanding.
