I, I, I, I, I, I'm looking for a fight!
I want to hit you with my fist
I am your antagonist
I am feeling the opposite of gracious
I want to fight, I am pugnacious
Truculent's another word that you might
Use to describe how much I want to fight
I, I, I, I, I, I'm looking for a fight!
I'm liable to start yelling and making a fuss
That's because I am obstreperous
If you prefer you can say I'm refractory
If it means mad and stubborn, your description's satisfactory
Let's have an altercation or a melee
I don't care what you call it I just want to fight today
I, I, I, I, I, I'm looking for a fight!

Stop!
I want you to stop making noise 'cause you really are annoying me!
I am asking you to cease
Making that noise and disturbing the peace
I am hoping you have it in you
The racket you're making to discontinue
If you refuse to desist
I am going to get very angry
Stop making noise 'cause you're really annoying me
And the next time you're thinking about being a pain
I'm going to ask that you refrain
Just don't start, that's what to do
Noisy activity you should eschew
Think about the sanity of your poor parents
And practice the fine art of forbearance
If you don't make noise you won't be annoying me
Thank yooooouuuuuuuuuuuu!
