Teenage Kicks

My life’s a fucking blow
Where it takes me I don’t know
My girl blissfully unaware
In the end I just don’t care
All my friends are getting pissed
But I got new ones on my list
Can’t fail, I know all the tricks
I need more teenaged kicks
And I can't calm down at work
And I can't calm down at work
My head's like the rolling sea
I got a storm inside of me
Something's feasting on my soul
My hearts a big black hole
All I want is to find out
What they're all whispering about
Here's a problem you cannot fix
I need more teenaged kicks
I can't sleep on Sunday nights
I can't sleep on Sunday nights
My life’s a fucking blow …
And I can't calm down at work
And I can't calm down at work
I can't sleep on Sunday nights
I can't sleep on Sunday nights

Don't wanna talk to you
All I want is to get drunk
Can't you leave me be
Can't you see I'm so fucked up
Won't even look at you
I'm not in the mood for smiling
Stay out of my head
Save yourself for someone else
There's nothing that you can do
I don't wanna fall in love with you
You're the most beautiful thing in sight
But I don't wanna fall in love tonight
Don't wanna talk to you
All I want is to get drunk
Can't you leave me be
Can't you see I'm so fucked up
Don't come too close to me
I'm just here to kill my time
It's really not personal
Because I think about it every night
There's nothing that you can do
I don't wanna fall in love with you
You're the most beautiful thing in sight
But I don't wanna fall in love tonight

The Middle

I'm always in the middle
I'm always in between
I'm always on the lookout
Of what should become of me
I try to find an answer
But I'm always on the run
I'm looking for a way out
But I'm having too much fun
I know I should just go
But the time is always wrong
I really lost my mind but I don't care
I try to be decisive
But I don't know what to do
Am I living for myself?
I have no fucking clue
I'm waiting for a moment
That might not ever come
This excuse for my apathy
Is why I always feel undone
I know I should just go... x2
I can ask a lot of questions
I can analyze my friends
I talk like a fortune cookie
That nobody really understands
I know I should just go... x4

We are at the movies
Cos they show your favorite film
I'm getting slightly bored
Because nobody gets killed
I make a stupid joke
But the french is all too loud
And when I try too touch your hair
You knock me out!
Every time I try to kiss you
You knock me out with just one punch
And when I want to hold your hand
You knock me out again
We are at a party
And all our friends are here
We're having a good time
Singing songs and drinking beer
You look into my eyes
And suddenly the light falls out
But when I try to come close by
You knock me out!
Every time I try to kiss you
You knock me out with just one punch
And when I want to hold your hand
You knock me out again
Every time you make me hit the floor
Makes me love more and more
You beat me til I'm sore
Like that Russian in Rocky 4

Echo on the Dancefloor

It started all with a kiss
Yeah, ignorance is a bliss
You looked so pissed that night
Oh my, what a beautiful sight
You said, that you can’t stand these folks
With their plastic smiles and ironic jokes
So many nights of pathetic yearning
From this point there’s no returning
This club is empty
Like it was never before
And I can hear my heartbeat
Echo on the dancefloor
For a short time you’ve been my soul mate
But you are not anymore
Now I can hear my heartbeat
Echo on the dancefloor
Decisions have to be made
Oh, baby, it’s not too late
It’s up to me and you
We could start something new
I wrote so many stupid lines
And screwed it up one hundred times
So many nights of pathetic yearning
From this point there’s no returning
This club is empty
Like it was never before
And I can hear my heartbeat
Echo on the dancefloor
For a short time you’ve been my soul mate
But you are not anymore
Now I can hear my heartbeat
Echo on the dancefloor
