Lyrics

(Written by alan doyle / séan mccann)

Na na na, na na neh ah na na
Oh, na na na, na na neh ah na na

Wouldn't it be great, if no one ever got offended
Wouldn't it be great to say what's really on your mind
And I have always said, "all the rules are made for bending"
And if I let my hair down, would that be such a crime?

Chorus:
I wanna be consequence free
I wanna be where nothing needs to matter
I wanna be consequence free
Just sing - na na na, na na neh ah na na
Oh, na na na, na na neh ah na na

I could really use to lose my catholic conscience
'Cause I'm getting sick of feeling guilty all the time
I won't abuse it, yeah I've got the best intentions
For a little bit of anarchy but not the hurting kind

Chorus

I couldn't sleep at all last night 'cause I had so much on my mind
I'd like to leave it all behind, but you know it's not that easy
Oh, for just one night

Wouldn't it be great, if the band just never ended
We could stay out late and we would never hear last call
We wouldn't need to worry about approval or permission
We could slip off the edge and never worry about the fall

Chorus
