They're gonna

clean up your looks

with all the lies in the books

to make a citizen out of you

Because they

sleep with a gun

and keep an eye on you, son

so, they can watch

all the things you do

Because the

drugs never work

they're gonna

give you a smirk

'cause they got methods

of keepin' you clean

They're gonna

rip up your heads

your aspirations to shreds

another cog in

the murder machine

They said, all

teenagers scare

the livin' s##t out of me

they could care less

as long as someone'll bleed

So, darken your clothes

or strike a violent pose

maybe they'll leave you alone

but not me

The boys and

girls in the clique

the awful names

that they stick

you're never gonna

fit in much, kid

But if you're

troubled and hurt

what you got

under your shirt

will make them pay

for the things that they did

They said, all

teenagers scare

the livin' s##t out of me

they could care less

as long as someone'll bleed

So, darken your clothes

or strike a violent pose

maybe they'll leave you alone

but not me

woah... yeah!

They said, all

teenagers scare

the livin' s##t out of me

they could care less

as long as someone'll bleed

So, darken your clothes

or strike a violent pose

maybe they'll leave you alone

but not me

all together now!

Teenagers scare

the livin' s##t out of me

they could care less

as long as someone'll bleed

So, darken your clothes

or strike a violent pose

maybe they'll leave you alone

but not me

Woah...

teenagers scare

the livin' s##t out of me

they could care less

as long as someone'll bleed

So, darken your clothes

or strike a violent pose

maybe they'll leave you alone

but not me
