Hey girl in the strobing light, what your mama never told ya
Is love hurts when you do it right, you can cry when you get older
Young boy by the traffic light, what your daddy never told ya
Is love hurts when you do it right, you can cry when you get older
Hold up a second now, i got something on my dirty mind
I start out with good intentions but messed it up like all the time
I try to keep up appearance but always end up way out of line
I need some kind of miracle 'cause i lost all my faith in science, so i put my faith in me
She said: "There just must be more to life than this"
He said: "Careful 'cause you might just get your wish"
Everybody in the back singing!
Hey girl in the strobing light, what your mama never told ya
Is love hurts when you do it right, you can cry when you get older
Everybody singing!
Young boy by the traffic light, what your daddy never told ya
Is love hurts when you do it right, you can cry when you get older
Back in suburbia kids get high and make out on the train
Then endless incomprehensible boredom takes a hold again
And in this other dream i'm on top of the world, ahead of the game
Think of reality and it hits me hardcore to the brain, we gotta get away
She said: "There just must be more to life than this"
He said: "Careful 'cause you might just get your wish"
Everybody in the back singing!
Hey girl in the strobing light, what your mama never told ya
Is love hurts when you do it right, you can cry when you get older
Everybody in the front!
Young boy by the traffic light, what your daddy never told ya
Is love hurts when you do it right, you can cry when you get older
Bet your mama never told you that
