| Tradition | |
| Chorus | |
| They gotcha dancin' to the drum | |
| It's time to breakaway and run | |
| When they tell ya jump ya jump | |
| You wrapped up, you tied up (whoa!) | |
| Why you trying to think for me? | |
| Just because you came before me | |
| Why you criticize what I do? | |
| Cause it ain’t like what you used to | |
| Why do you do what you do? | |
| Cause they did what they did? | |
| Can you think out the box or just snap to the grid? | |
| Are lookin' on the surface or under the lid? | |
| Are you thinkin' or just following tradition? | |
| Oh! | |
| Chorus | |
| They gotch dancin' to the drum | |
| (Caught in tradition) | |
| Its time to breakaway and run | |
| (Break from tradition) | |
| When they tell ya jump ya jump | |
| (You don't need permission) | |
| You wrapped up, you tied up (whoa!) | |
| Why as the time goes by? | |
| You learn the "what" and the "how" but not "why" | |
| Why you want me just to rely? | |
| I check the proof, I know the truth it won't lie | |
| Chorus | |
| Everybody dancin' to the same drum | |
| No individual identity, everybody thinking like one | |
| That's negative, break from tradition, that's imperative. Are you coming? are going? are you growing? where's ya heritage? | |
| Right where ya thought it was, hurts don't it, of course it does | |
| Violins play the truth, like that fiddler on the roof | |
| Think like you or think it through | |
| I'm a choose the latter way | |
| They go left, I go right, they go Sunday, I go Saturday | |
| Chorus | |
| ........Dancin'.......Breakin'........Jump-Jumpin' (x2) | |
| (So we say) | |
| If you know it's all tradition, why you knocking on wood? | |
| Halloween trick o treatin' can that evil be good? | |
| (So we say) | |
| Why when you pray to God you gotta close your eyes? | |
| If you knew he was going to propose, why you acting surprised? | |
| (So we say) | |
| Why you got on a roller coaster when you scared of heights? | |
| And if you did it before the wedding, why you modeling white? | |
| (So we say) | |
| If the theory ain't scientific, why they teach it in school? | |
| Right now you bopping ya head, I know why, so do you | |
| Chorus | |
| ........... "Tradition" .......... "Tradition"..........(x2) | |
| You wrapped up, you (tied up tangled up!) | |
| "Tradition" |
