You Don’t Have to Be Old to Be Wise Judas Priest

[Verse 1]
I've had enough of being programmed
And told what I ought to do
Let's get one thing straight, I'll choose my fate
And it's got nothing to do with you
The years are flying by and it's time I got high
Took a sample of the good things in life
This is the chance I'm gonna take
Gonna kick out trouble and strife

[Chorus]
I've grown sick and tired of the same old lies
Might look a little young, so what's wrong?
You don't have to be old to be wise

[Verse 2]
No, I don't care that the people stare
Accuse me of going mad
Just get a long hard look into the mirror
Then, tell me now who's been had
The way things are going I won't get to show 'em
Don't seem a lot of time, not to me
So it's off with the ties, no compromise
What it takes what it's like to be free

[Chorus]
I've grown sick and tired of the same old lies
Might look a little young, so what's wrong?
You don't have to be old to be wise
