Wake up, wake up now, and live like yesterday.
Wake up, tomorrow and live just like today.
See all these people they tell you who you are,
and who you should be,
they've gone too far, whoa.
It's for me to say, why can't I make one mistake?
All eyes are on you, as you crawl through the crowd.
They've all got secrets, but yours are worse somehow.
The judge's hammer has come down on your heart.
The jury sits and waits for your sentence to start.
It's for me to say, why can't I make one mistake?
It's for me to say, why can't I make one mistake?
(Well, c'mon!)
It's for me to say, why can't I make one, just one mistake?
