{{lyrics | |||
| | |||
Is it wrong to want to live on your own? | |||
No, it's not wrong, but I must know | |||
How can someone so young | |||
Sing words so sad? | |||
Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow | |||
Boot the grime of this world in the crotch, dear | |||
And don't go home tonight | |||
Come out and find the one that you love and who loves you | |||
The one that you love and who loves you | |||
Oh | |||
Is it wrong not to always be glad | |||
No, it's not wrong, but I must add | |||
How can someone so young | |||
Sing words so sad | |||
Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow | |||
Boot the grime of this world in the crotch, dear | |||
And don't go home tonight | |||
Come out and find the one that you love and who loves you | |||
The one that you love and who loves you | |||
Take my hand and off we stride | |||
Oh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la | |||
You're a girl and I'm a boy | |||
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la | |||
la, la, la, la, la | |||
Take my hand and off we stride | |||
Oh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la | |||
I'm a girl and you're a boy | |||
La, la, la, la, la | |||
La, la, la, la, la | |||
Sheila take a, Sheila take a bow | |||
La, la, la, la, la, la | |||
Throw your homework onto the fire | |||
Come out and find the one that you love | |||
Come out and find the one you love | |||
