I Was a Teenage Anarchist |
| I was a teenage anarchist, looking for a revolution |
| I had the style, I had the ambition |
| I read all the authors, I knew the right slogans |
| There was no war but the class war |
| I was ready to set the world on fire |
| I was a teenage anarchist, looking for a revolution |
| Do you remember when you were young and you wanted to set the world on fire? |
| I was a teenage anarchist, but the politics were too convenient |
| In the depths of their humanity all I saw was bloodless ideology |
| And with freedom as the doctrine, guess who was the new authority? |
| I was a teenage anarchist, but the politics were too convenient |
| I was a teenage anarchist, but then the scene got too rigid |
| It was a mob mentality, they set their rifle sights on me |
| Narrow visions of autonomy, you want me to surrender my identity |
| I was a teenage anarchist, the revolution was a lie |
| I was a teenage anarchist |
