Expecting you to fight

I've just got this to say

It's always up to you, if you want to be that
F C E
Want to see that, want to see it that way
Am
You're coming along
I can see you in the morning when you go to school
Don't forget your books, you know you've got to learn the golden rule
Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work
And be like Johnnie-Too-Good, don't you know he never shirks?
He's comin' along
After school is over, you're playing in the park
Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark
They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
And grow up just like them, won't let you work it out
And you're full of doubt
Don't do this and don't do that
What are they tryna do? (Make a good boy of you)
Do they know where it's at?
Don't criticise, they're old and wise
Do as they tell you to, don't want the devil to
Come and put out your eyes
Maybe I'm mistaken, expecting you to fight
Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right
But while I am still livin', I've just got this to say
It's always up to you if you wanna be that
Wanna see that, wanna see it that way
You're comin' along
