This song seems to be sung from the point of view of a teenager that is unsatisfied with being strictly parented despite the acknowledgment that it is for their betterment, and unhappy with their future monotonous role in society.
Rules Lyrics
This is wrong
This is right
Why don't you understand?
You fight
Clean that mess
Wear that dress
I want you to be happy
I guess
When I go, you'll know
By my footprints in the snow
Mama says "where'd you go?"
Daddy says "where'd you go?"
Baby says "don't you go"
She says
Rules are rules
Made for fools
And you are no exception
We're tools
I won't believe
Hate my need
To be a little part of
A machine
Don't you dare ask why
I'll be with you all the time
Mama says "close your eyes"
Daddy says "close your eyes"
But baby don't close her eyes
