[Verse 1]
I wanna be a rebel
I wanna be James Dean
I wanna be the badass mother on the cover of a magazine
I wanna be your trigger
I wanna hear your voice
I wanna kick some ass, I wanna take some names, and then I'll feel alright
[Pre-Chorus]
And then I'll feel alright
And then I'll feel alright
And then I'll feel alright
And then I'll feel alright
[Chorus]
Always so fuckin' uptight
Let's cut loose go out tonight
Tomorrow you can still look clean
For tonight let's fight like Harry Dean
Like Harry Dean!
Like Harry Dean!
Like Harry Dean!
[Verse 2]
I wanna make you laugh
Set your brain on fire
Don't wanna be a saint, don't wanna save your soul, I wanna play guitar
I wanna be a riot girl
I wanna wear cool clothes
Don't wanna be a dork no more tonight, but that's how it goes
[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I'll be alright
And I'll be alright
And I'll be alright
And I'll be alright
[Chorus]
Always so fuckin' uptight
Let's cut loose go out tonight
Tomorrow you can still look clean
For tonight let's fight like Harry Dean
Like Harry Dean
Like Harry Dean
Like Harry Dean!
Yeah!
[Outro]
Like Harry Dean
Like Harry Dean
Like Harry Dean
Like Harry Dean!
