Put me in a special school,
Cause I am such a fool,
And I don't need a single book to teach me how to read.
Who needs stupid books?
They are for petty crooks,
And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams!
So turn off the T.V.
Cause that's what others see
And movies are as bad as eating chocolate ice-cream!
They only sicken me,
Don't let me play football!
I'll sack the quarterback and jack the brother of the ball!
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doing things my own way
And never giving up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double-taker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.
I picked up a guitar,
What does this signify?
I'm gonna play some heavy metal riffs and you will die!
You wanted arts and crafts?
How's this for arts and crafts?
Wuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh
That's Right!
I'm growing out my hair.
I'm moving out to Cherokee,
I'm gonna be a rockstar,
And you will go to bed with me!
Cause I can't work a job,
Like any other slob,
Punching in and punching out and suckin' up to Bob!
Marrying a Bee-atch
Having seven kee-ads
Giving up and growing old, And hopin' there's a god!
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doing things my own way
And never giving up.
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double-taker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up
I'm gonna be star,
And people will crank necks,
To get a glimpse of me,
And see if I am having sex.
They're studying my moves.
They try to understand.
Why, I am so unlike the singers in the other bands!
I'm such a mystery!
As anyone can see!
There isn't anybody else, exactly quite like me!
And when it's party time, like 1999!
I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy!!!
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doing things my own way
And never giving up.
I'm a troublemaker
Not a double-taker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.
KEEP IT ON THE UP!
(I'm a troublemaker)
KEEP IT ON THE UP! (UP!)
(I'm a troublemaker)
KEEP IT ON THE UP!
(I'm a troublemaker)
KEEP IT ON THE UP! (UP!)
(I'm a troublemaker)
Never giving up

Put me in a special school,

Trouble Maker Lyrics:
Put me in a special school,
'Cause I am such a fool,
And I don't need a single book to teach me how to read.
Who needs stupid books?
They are for petty crooks,
And I will learn by studying the lessons in my dreams
So turn off the T.V.
'Cause that's what others see
And movies are as bad as eating chocolate ice cream
They only sicken me
Don't let me play football
I'll sack the quarterback and jack the brother of the ball
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doin' things my own way
And never givin' up.
I'm a troublemaker
Not a doubletaker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.
I picked up a guitar,
What does this signify?
I'm gonna play some heavy metal,
Wishing you would die.
You wanted arts and crafts?
How's this for arts and crafts?
(guitar solo)
(That's Right!)
I'm growin' out my hair
I'm movin' up to Cherokee
I'm gonna be a rockstar
And you are gonna bear with me
'Cause I can't book a job,
Like any other slob,
Punchin' in and punchin' out
And suckin' up to Bob.
Marryin' a bi-atch,
Havin' Seven ki-ads,
Givin' up and growin' old,
And hopin' there's a god.
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doin' things my own way
And never givin' up
I'm a troublemaker
Not a doubletaker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up
I'm gonna be star
And people will crane necks
To get a glimpse of me
And see if I am havin' sex
And studyin' my moves
They try to understand
Why I am so unlike
The singers in the other bands
I'm such a mystery
As anyone can see
There isn't anybody else
Exactly quite like me
And when it's party time
Like 1999
I'll party by myself because I'm such a special guy
I'm a troublemaker
Never been a faker
Doin' things my own way
And never givin' up.
I'm a troublemaker
Not a doubletaker
I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.
Keep it on the up
(I'm a trouble maker)
Keep it on the up (UP!)
(I'm a trouble maker)
Keep it on the up
(I'm a trouble maker)
Keep it on the up (UP!)
(I'm a trouble maker)
Never givin' up

I don't have the patience to keep it on the up.
KEEP IT ON THE UP!
(I'm a troublemaker)
KEEP IT ON THE UP! (UP!)
(I'm a troublemaker)
KEEP IT ON THE UP!
(I'm a troublemaker)
KEEP IT ON THE UP! (UP!)
(I'm a troublemaker)
Never giving up
