Davy Brown was a drunken clown who reeked of peppermint schnapps

After class he could be found perusing the pawn shops

He amassed a wide array of bands on cassettes and LPs

Eight track tapes worn out of shape fifty cents a piece

Chorus

AYoung dumb and Efull of fun

 We Cstarved ourselves and stayedB7 out of the sun

AOur heroes were on Eheroin

 In theC good olB7d days Eof grunge

Verse 3

Tim McCoy was a rich boy whose parents had split up

Recently moved to Illinois with his mom in the country club

He wore bright new tennis shoes but we didn't envy him at all

Sure his guitars were better than ours but his flannels came from the mall

Verse 4

Tina Rash is pure white trash boyfriend's name was Sam

He dropped out two years before and he drove a black Trans-Am

His long hair half covered up a faded Anthrax shirt

He kept it short in the front before mullet was even a word

Bridge

CStudents of drama smoked marijuana beforeE putting the plays on

CWe didn't do “Our Town” or “Oklahoma” instead D“Tommy” and “Miss Saigon”

CWe had a cool instructor we all wanted to fuck her butG then she had to leave

CShe got caught smoking pot with usA at a cast B7party

Verse 5

Then I guess we got depressed in April of '94

Some heroes fall some heroes die some ain't heroes no more

Now when I think about my friends I don't know whose dead or alive

Cause I never saw no one at all since May of '95
