đŸŽ” L Y R I C S đŸŽ”:
Papa, I know you're going to be upset
'Cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now, I'm not a baby
You always taught me right from wrong
I need your help, daddy, please be strong
I may be young at heart, but I know what I'm saying

The one you warned me all about
The one you said I could do without
We're in an awful mess
And I don't mean maybe
Please

Papa don't preach
I'm in trouble, deep
Papa don't preach
I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind
I'm keeping my baby
Ooh, I'm gonna keep my baby, mmm

He says that he's going to marry me
We can raise a little family
Maybe we'll be all right
It's a sacrifice

But my friends keep telling me to give it up
Saying I'm too young, I ought to live it up
What I need right now is some good advice
Please

Papa don't preach
I'm in trouble, deep
Papa don't preach
I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind
I'm keeping my baby
Ooh, I'm gonna keep my baby, aah, ooh

Daddy, daddy, if you could only see
Just how good he's been treating me
You'd give us your blessing right now
'Cause we are in love
We are in love
So please

Daddy, daddy
Daddy, daddy

Daddy, daddy, if you could only see
Just how good he's been treating me
You'd give us your blessing right now
'Cause we are in love
We are in love
So please

Papa don't preach
Papa don't preach
Papa don't preach
Papa don't preach

Papa don't preach
Papa don't preach

Papa don't preach
I'm in trouble, deep
Papa don't preach
I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind
I'm keeping my baby
Ooh, I'm gonna keep my baby

Papa don't preach
Don't you stop loving me, daddy
I know I'm gonna keep my baby, ooh

https://u2be.ovh/w/jASjo5drmK6p6pwkVxvBLv?start=0s&autoplay=1

You're watching the official music video for Twisted Sister - "We're Not Gonna Take It (Extended Version)" from the album 'Stay Hungry' (1984). "We're Not Gonna Take It" has been covered by Donots, "Weird Al" Yankovic, and Lit among others, and has been featured in a number of television commercials and shows. Welcome to Twisted Sister’s official music video, home of iconic heavy metal and glam rock hits “I Wanna Rock,” “We’re Not Gonna Take It,” “Burn In Hell,” and “The Price” as well as smash albums ‘You Can’t Stop Rock ‘N’ Roll,’ ‘Stay Hungry,’ and the best-selling holiday album ‘A Twisted Christmas.’ Twisted Sister formed in 1973 and over their 48-year legacy, lead singer Dee Snider, guitarists Jay Jay French and Eddie Ojeda, bassist Mark “The Animal” Mendoza, and drummer A.J. Pero sold more than 20 million records and performed more than 9,000 shows – including 125 headline festival dates. Their electrifying stage presence and theatricality along with their fist-pumping anthems of youthful rebellion transcend generations and cultures and have made them one of the greatest heavy metal bands in history.

Lyrics:
We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore

We've got the right to choose, and
There ain't no way we'll lose it
This is our life, this is our song
We'll fight the powers that be, just
Don't pick on our destiny, 'cause
You don't know us, you don't belong

We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore

Oh, you're so condescending
Your call is never ending
We don't want nothin', not a thing from you
Your life is trite and jaded
Boring and confiscated
If that's your best, your best won't do

Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
We're right (yeah)
We're free (yeah)
We'll fight (yeah)
You'll see (yeah)

Whoa-whoa, we're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore

We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore
No way!

Woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
We're right (yeah)
We're free (yeah)
We'll fight (yeah)
You'll see (yeah)

We're not gonna take it
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore

We're not gonna take it (no!)
No, we ain't gonna take it
We're not gonna take it anymore (just you try and make us)

We're not gonna take it (come on!)
No, we ain't gonna take it (you're all worthless and weak)
We're not gonna take it anymore (now drop and give me 20)

We're not gonna take it (a pledge pin)
No, we ain't gonna take it (on your uniform)
We're not gonna take it anymore

Rod Stewart’s Career and Style Evolution in the 1980s

The article reviews Rod Stewart’s transformation during the 1980s, a decade in which the British singer successfully adapted to changing musical trends while facing both commercial success and critical skepticism. Known for his distinctive raspy voice and long-standing status as a global music star, Stewart entered the decade distancing himself from the disco controversy of the late 1970s and embracing the polished sounds of New Wave and synth-pop. His 1981 album “Tonight I’m Yours” marked a strong commercial period, featuring the hit single “Young Turks,” which became one of his most recognizable songs of the era by blending energetic synthesizer production with his signature vocal style. Throughout the early and mid-1980s, Stewart continued releasing music such as “Body Wishes” (1983) and “Camouflage” (1984), which produced popular tracks like “Baby Jane” and “Some Guys Have All the Luck.” However, critics often dismissed these works as overly commercial and lacking depth, reflecting a divide between audience success and critical reception. Despite the criticism, Stewart remained a major presence in popular culture, particularly through MTV, where his visual image became just as important as his music. His appearance in the 1980s was especially notable, characterized by an exaggerated spiky blonde mullet and flamboyant fashion choices such as leopard-print outfits, colorful suits, and silk scarves. This bold aesthetic reinforced his status as a recognizable pop culture figure and a tabloid favorite. By the late 1980s, Stewart experienced a creative resurgence with the album “Out of Order” (1988), which marked a return to a more soulful and roots-oriented sound. This period included successful songs like “Forever Young” and his acclaimed cover of Tom Waits’ “Downtown Train” in 1989. Alongside his musical evolution, Stewart maintained a high-profile personal life in Los Angeles, cultivating a playboy image through relationships and a lavish lifestyle that further fueled his celebrity status.
