Not Another Teenage Anthem lyrics

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 solution

Just hell-bent on our own confusion

You can't shake hands now with a 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 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

The look and they say it's so sad a shame

How anyone could eve turn out like this way

But in a world of liars 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

And we don't need a reason

To give you all a fucking beating

And if you think you can make us

Go ahead and try and take us

We don't care
