Lyrics

I wanna be a bottle blonde I don't know why but I feel conned I wanna be an idle teen I wish I hadn't been so clean I wanna stay inside all day I want the world to go away I want blood, guts and chocolate cake I wanna be a real fake Yeah, I wish I'd been a, wish I'd been a teen, teen idle Wish I'd been a prom queen, fighting for the title Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible Feeling super, super (super!) suicidal The wasted years, the wasted youth The pretty lies, the ugly truth And the day has come where I have died Only to find I've come alive I wanna be a virgin pure, a 21st century whore I want back my virginity so I can feel infinity I wanna drink until I ache I wanna make a big mistake I want blood, guts and angel cake I'm gonna puke it anyway Yeah, I wish I'd been a, wish I'd been a teen, teen idle Wish I'd been a prom queen, fighting for the title Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible Feeling super, super (super!) suicidal The wasted years, the wasted youth The pretty lies, the ugly truth And the day has come where I have died Only to find I've come alive Come alive, I've come alive I wish I wasn't such a narcissist I wish I didn't really kiss the mirror when I'm on my own Oh God, I'm gonna die alone! Adolescence didn't make sense A little loss of innocence The ugly years of being a fool Ain't youth meant to be beautiful? Yeah, I wish I'd been a, wish I'd been a teen, teen idle Wish I'd been a prom queen, fighting for the title Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible Feeling super, super (super!) suicidal The wasted years, the wasted youth The pretty lies, the ugly truth And the day has come where I have died Only to find I've come alive Only to find I've come alive Only to find I've come alive Come alive Feeling super, super, super! Feeling super, super, super! Feeling super, super, super! Come alive
