Lyrics
Not Another Teenage Anthem
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.
The rules that you make are the rules that we break
And we slither through your
System now just like snakes
Pat us on the back and tell us we're great,
Then you grab us by the throat and feed us our fate
We've got a problem with your solutions
Just hell-bent on our own confusion
You can't shake hands now with your fist
Cause that kind of friendship don't exist
Mom and dad look at me now
I know you're so damn proud
The baby that you used to kiss
I can not resist these middle fingers on my fist
Hey, this is not another teenage anthem
But it sounds like one
For all the bored and the young
Who dare to be dumb
They look and they say it's so sad and a shame
How anyone could ever turn out like this way
But in a world of lairs and hypocrites
You're the reason that this monster exists
Quick to point the finger saying who's at fault
That rock and roll and movies operate our thoughts
They only reason we do what we do is
To shove it down the throats of pricks like you
Mom and dad look at me now
I know you're so damn proud
The baby that you used to kiss
I can not resist these middle fingers on my fist
Hey, this is not another teenage anthem
And we don't need a reason
To give you all a fucking beating
And if you think can make us
Go ahead and try and take us
Mom and dad look at me now
I know you're so damn proud
The baby that you used to kiss
I can not resist these middle fingers on my fist
Hey, this is not another teenage anthem
We don't care
