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