Careless Teenage Smokers

from Black Owls by Black Owls

/

about

A song about High School social anxiety.

lyrics

I've got a question for you.
And I need you to answer me very seriously.

Hey careless teenage smokers
take your fingers from the chain links they are rusted
hey careless teenage smokers
musty mouthy pricks - flaring nostril hicks
hey careless teenage smokers
flinch to light the pouts - until they put you out
hey careless teenage smokers
time for you to run the world,
so wake up, wake up, wake up

tired programs for star machines
social network monsters in magazines
without experience and no remorse
wise beyond years, child of divorce
careless teenage smokers
bring me booze and candy
right here, right now, right here right now

don't stare you lonely losers, pay attention to me
bring me your dignity - it's for my own amusement
it seems your lights are fading so wake up wake up
they were breathing, they were laughing
they are falling so behind
they are trying, they are flying
they are dying on the vine
