Let me sit right here, It's important to me
To see this to the end; don't interfere
I've got time, a whole lifetime
So, what's it to you if I release my mind
You've got too much to say about what I do today
I want independence!
Don't tell me, I already know
You can't tell me nothin' that I ain't forgotten before
All I want is all I want
I'll ignore everything else; just see that you don't
Sidecar is gonna go, I'm riding solo
I want independence!
I've been thinking, and it's just not fair
How your presence follows me everywhere
I've got my own ideas
But you're gonna hold me back for a dozen years
I can act like I don't care because I know you'll always be there
I want independence! I want independence! I want independence!
I want it, I want it, I want it NOW!
