[Verse 1]
Monday morning
Eighteen years of dawning
I said, "How long?"
I said, "How long?"

[Verse 2]
It was one dull morning
I woke the world with bawling
I was so sad
They were so glad

[Chorus]
I had the feeling it was out of control
Was of the opinion it was out of control

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 3]
Boys and girls
They go to school
And girls can make children
Well, not like this one

[Chorus]
I got spirit, I've got soul
I got some big ideas, I'm out of control
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
Out of control
Out of control
Out of control
Out of control
Out of control
Out of control (Oh)
Out of control
Out of control (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I got spirit, I've got soul
I got some big ideas, I'm out of control

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
Out of control
Out of control
[Verse 4]
I fought fate
There's blood at the garden gate
The woman said childhood
It's in his childhood

[Verse 5]
Some day I'll die
The choice will not be mine
It's never too late
You can always fight fate

[Chorus]
Ayy, we got spirit, we got soul
My brothers and I are out of control

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Outro]
Out of control
Out of control
Out of control
