Status Quo

[JOE]
It starts with not questioning the answers
And giving up before you've begun

[DYLAN]
It locks all the doors, increases the pressure
And in a flash
Your time is up before it's done

[BRIAN]
And you won't know
How it can feel
To feel at all

[JOEY]
So I say
"No"
To status quo
Who wants to be like the rest
And deny the best that I'm meant for?

I will show
The status quo

[JOE, DYLAN & BRIAN]
"No"
...quo
Ooh...
Ooh...

...show
...quo
[ALL]
Who cares about normal?
I'll never conform
I will be content to resent the status quo

[JOE]
I kick down the walls around me

[ALL]
They don't know how strong I am

[DYLAN & BRIAN]
I'm not defined by boundaries
They could never understand

[JOEY]
I'm so much -

[ALL]
More
Than status quo

[JOEY]
Forget about being
Another pipe dreamer
Stuck on the bottom floor

[ALL]
And I know

[JOEY]
It's time to -

[ALL]
Go
So maybe I've gotten everything
That I wanted but I think that
I might have made it so
When I said "No, no, no"
To status quo...

[JOEY, spoken]
Thank you, New York City...

[ALL]
I am a Starship Ranger
I'm gonna do everything I can
To always be a Starship Ranger

It's everything
It's everything
I am!
