Lyrics
Teenage Angst
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Shine the headlight, straight into my eyes
Like the roadkill, I'm paralysed
You see through my disguise
At the drive-in, double feature,
Pull the lever, break the fever
And say your last goodbyes
Since I was born I started to decay
Now nothing ever, ever goes my way
One fluid gesture, like stepping back in time
Trapped in amber, petrified
And still not satisfied
Airs and social graces, elocution so divine
I'll stick to my needle, and my favourite waste of time,
Both spineless and sublime
Since I was born I started to decay
Now nothing ever, ever goes my way
