Teenage Angst

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
