Wouldn't it be great If no one ever got offended Wouldn't it be great To say what's really on your mind I've always said That all the rules are made for bending And if I let my hair down Would that be such a crime [Chorus] I want to be Consequence free I want to be Where nothing needs to matter I want to be Consequence free Just sing Nananananananana Oh, nananananananana 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]
