Hey, hey I got a 20-pound ball Hanging by a chain around my neck I got to get away Run before I become a wreck I got to break these chains Before I go insane I've got to get up and go To go any place I don't know I'm gonna breakaway from all the chains that bind And every day I'll wear what I want And do what suits me fine Hey, hey I'm gonna breakaway Breakaway from the everyday Wagging tongues behind my back Spreading lies that hold no fact I'm gonna leave behind All the twisted lines Before you tear at friends of mine And ground that heart with time I'm gonna breakaway from all the chains that bind And every day I'll wear what I want And do what suits me fine Breakaway, breakaway Breakaway from the everyday Breakaway, breakaway
