they're gonna clean up your looks

with all the lies and 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 gonna give you a smirk

cause they got methods

 of keeping you clean

 they're gonna rip out your heads

 your aspirations to shreads

 another caught in the murder machine

 they say all teenagers scare the living shit out of me

 they could care less as long as someone will 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

 we'll make them pay for the things that they did

 they say all teenagers scare the living shit out of me

 they could care less as long as someone will bleed

 so darken your clothes

 or strike a violent pose

 maybe they'll leave you alone

 but not me

(Solo)

 they say all teenagers scare the living shit out of me

 they could care less as long as someone will 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 living shit out of me

they could care less as long as someone will bleed

so darken your clothes

or strike a violent pose

maybe they'll leave you alone

but not me

teenagers scare the living shit out of me

they could care less as long as someone will bleed

so darken your clothes

or strike a violent pose

maybe they'll leave you alone

but not me
