| Vera’s face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun
|
| With a lighter and some hairspray
|
| Smoking in the girls' room
|
| Not worse than Shelley’s rape behind the McDonald’s
|
| By a man she thought was fine, didn’t tell anybody
|
| Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some
|
| Now we look back and see that she didn’t know how
|
| We never thought that we’d get caught up
|
| Stuck in the teenage waste
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the Kmart
|
| Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled
|
| Slip the acid on your tongue rooftop mall parkade
|
| We couldn’t get enough
|
| Then count the stars and the ten million woes
|
| Just you and the universe judging each other
|
| We never knew that we’d get caught up
|
| Stuck in the teenage waste
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| As we let go… yeah
|
| Peso… roda… ginga… joga
|
| It’s a fight, it’s a fight and you finally belong
|
| Got a shiner now and it’s more than a battle scar
|
| More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell
|
| At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break
|
| Such a good, good story to tell
|
| You bully, you break, you bully, you break
|
| You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake
|
| You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it
|
| And you’re in it and it’s spinning
|
| And it’s wild
|
| We never thought that we’d get caught up
|
| Stuck in the teenage waste
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| As we explode
|
| We’re counting the stars
|
| We’re counting the stars
|
| We’re gonna go far, we’re gonna go far
|
| We’re counting the stars, we’re counting the stars
|
| We’re not very far, we’re not very far
|
| And it’s you and me in the open air
|
| It’s truth or dare, we don’t care
|
| We’re counting the stars, we’re counting the stars, we’re counting the stars,
|
| we’re counting the stars |
