I Watched Too Much Stuff About The Runaways on Hulu and I Wanna Growl Too aka Everybody Can Fuck Off Except Joan Jett by Melodie Yvonne

I’m not going to be what you want me to be
I won’t be what you think that I am
All I really know is fucking just hanging on
What you think I just don’t give a damn

I’m not gonna be what you think I can be
I won’t fit into your fucking mold
You can’t fucking make me into your little toy
I’m not a thing that’s bought and just sold

I’m not gonna play your little fucking mind games
I’m not one of your fashion plate dolls
You’re not gonna win if you keep fucking around
I’ll throat punch you and twist off your balls

You think that your punk, but you ain’t got a clue
Your rock ‘n’ roll is bubblegum pink
Well, here’s a bright fucking newsflash for you all
I don’t give a fuck what you think
