When i was a younger lad,
They said follow me,
Imgaine all the peace you'll find in conformity,
Now that i am older,
Im more self-assured,
I march to a beat of a different drum,
A beat you've never heard.

[Chorus:]
Don't need a leader im not a sheep,
And i will never succumb,
I'll always march to a different beat,
The beat of a differet drum.

You can lead a horse to water
But u can't make him drink,
U can lead a human by the nose
But you can't make him think
I may be lost sometimes
But i don't follow anyone
I'll always march to the beat
The beat of a different drum

You say that we're cliche,
Just a passing trend,
I say ur afraid of our beat,
Afraid to be our friend

I'll stand and fight, i wont run
I'll never go out of style
I'll lead the pack, wont fall back
I'll go the extra mile
