We Want Respect

A Boy Band song about Respect

We Want Respect
A Boy Band song to the tune of I Want You Back by NSync

It’s something that we all want
It’s something that we all need, yeah
So tell me what to do now, ’cause
I, I, I, I, I, I
Want respect

It’s hard to say I’m sorry
When I treat my brother hatefully
A lesson I’ve learned too well for sure
(ahhh-ah-ah-ah)
But just give us a listen
We’re trying to figure out just what to do
And we’re gonna share some thoughts with you

We Want Respect

It’s something that we all want
It’s something that we all need, yeah

When you want respect

First and most important
We must feel respect for ourselves inside
Respect for where we came from, where we started
(ahhh-ah-ah-ah)
