Electric Frankenstein: Teenage Shutdown - Magnatune Compilation

Pressure here and pressure there/ you tell another lie

People touch and people stare/ you tell the world goodbye

This is an ecstatic scene/ can’t get enough of it

Legal system rnakes you scream/ you never try to fit

Violence just for violence’s sake/ but do you really care

Violence was your first mistake/ and will you ever dare

People come and people go/ you gotta make it stick

No one ever really knows/ the system makes you sick

Teenage Shutdown.

One big let down

Teenage Shutdown.

One big let down

People on the run around/ ain’t got a fucking clue

Never see me on the ground/I don’t get through to you

Promises I never keep/ you know it’s no surprise

Now I’m in it far too deep/ and you just hide your eyes

Everybody gives it up/ you dont know how to stop

You never get another shot/ and I’m the one on top

People learning how to cry/ it’s just another fad

People learning how to die/ and that’s what makes me mad

Teenage Shutdown.

One big let down

Teenage Shutdown.

One big let down

So now you lake another lesson/ but will you ever learn?

Now I’ve got another weapon/I leave you here to burn

Teenage is what teenage does/ you don’t know what to do

Teenage ain’t what teenage was/ I’m coming after you

Try to tell me what to do/ But I don’t hear at all

The system’s falling down on you/you gotta take the fall

People get a little close/ that’s when I run and hide

It’s life that l depend on most/ It’s just to save my pride

Teenage Shutdown.

One big let down
