Teen Idle
[Verse]
Dm A
I wanna be a bottle blonde
Bb C G
I don't know why but i feel conned
Dm A
I wanna be an idle teen
Bb C G
I wish i hadn't been so clean
Dm A F A
I wanna stay inside all day
F A Dm Gm
I want the world to go away
Dm A F A
I want blood, guts and chocolate cake
F A Dm Gm
I wanna be a real fake
[Chorus]
Dm C F Bb
Yeah i wish i'd been a, wish i'd been a teen, teen idle
Dm C F Gm
Wish i'd been a prom queen fighting for the title
Dm C F Bb
Instead of being sixteen & burning up a bible
F C F Gm
Feeling super, super (super!!!) suicidal
Dm C F Bb
The wasted years, the wasted youth
Dm C F Bb
The pretty lies, the ugly truth
Dm C F Bb
And the day has come where i have died
Dm C F Bb
Only to find i've come alive
[Verse]
Dm A
I wanna be a virgin pure
Bb C G
A 21st century whore
Dm A Bb C G
I want back my virginity so i can feel infinity
Dm A F A
I wanna drink until i ache
F A Dm Gm
I wanna make a big mistake
Dm A F A
I want blood, guts & angel cake
F A Dm Gm
I'm gonna puke it anyway
[Chorus]
Dm C F Bb
Yeah i wish i'd been a, wish i'd been a teen, teen idle
Dm C F Gm
Wish i'd been a prom queen fighting for the title
Dm C F Bb
Instead of being sixteen & burning up a bible
Dm C F Gm
Feeling super, super (super!!!) suicidal
Dm C F Bb
The wasted years, the wasted youth

The pretty lies, the ugly truth
Dm C F Bb
And the day has come where i have died

[Instrumental]
Dm C F Bb
[Verse]
Dm C F Bb
I wish i wasn't such a narcissist
Dm C F Bb
I wish i didn't really kiss
Dm C F Bb
The mirror when i'm on my own
Dm C F Bb
Oh god! i'm gonna die alone
Dm C F Bb
Adolescence didn't make sense
Dm C F Bb
A little loss of innocence
Dm C F Bb
The ugly years of being a fool
Dm C F Bb
Ain't youth meant to be beautiful?
[Chorus]
Dm C F Bb
Yeah i wish i'd been a, wish i'd been a teen, teen idle
Dm C F Gm
Wish i'd been a prom queen fighting for the title
Dm C F Bb
Instead of being sixteen & burning up a bible
Dm C F Gm
Feeling super, super (super!!!) suicidal
Dm C F Bb
The wasted years, the wasted youth
Dm C F Bb
The pretty lies, the ugly truth
Dm C F Bb
And the day has come where i have died
Dm C F Bb
Only to find i've come alive
[Outro]
Dm C F Bb
Feeling super, super, super!!! suicidal
Dm C F Bb
Feeling super, super, super!!! suicidal
Dm C F Bb
I've come alive
