Teen Idle by Marina and the Diamonds
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wanna be a bottle blonde.
I don't know why but I feel conned.
I wanna be an idle teen.
I wish I hadn't been so clean.
I wanna stay inside all day.
I want the world to go away.
I want blood, guts and chocolate cake.
I wanna be a real fake.
Yeah, I wish I'd been a, wish I'd been a teen, teen idle.
Wish I'd been a prom queen fighting for the title.
Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible.
Feeling super, super, super suicidal.
The wasted years, the wasted youth.
The pretty lies, the ugly truth.
And the day has come where I have died.
Only to find I've come alive.
I wanna be a virgin pure.
A 21st century whore.
I want back my virginity.
So I can feel infinity.
I wanna drink until I ache.
I wanna make a big mistake.
I want blood, guts and angel cake.
I'm gonna puke it anyway.
Yeah, I wish I'd been a, wish I'd been a teen, teen idle.
Wish I'd been a prom queen fighting for the title.
Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible.
Feeling super, super, super suicidal.
The wasted years, the wasted youth.
The pretty lies, the ugly truth.
And the day has come where I have died.
Only to find I've come alive.
Come alive, I've come alive.
I wish I wasn't such a narcissist.
I wish I didn't really kiss.
The mirror when I'm on my own.
Oh, God! I'm gonna die alone.
Adolescence didn't make sense.
A little loss of innocence.
The ugly years of being a fool.
Ain't youth meant to be beautiful?
Yeah, I wish I'd been a, wish I'd been a teen, teen idle.
Wish I'd been a prom queen fighting for the title.
Instead of being sixteen and burning up a bible.
Feeling super, super, super suicidal.
The wasted years, the wasted youth.
The pretty lies, the ugly truth.
And the day has come where I have died.
Only to find I've come alive.
Only to find I've come alive.
Only to find I've come alive.
Come alive.
Feeling super, super, super!
Feeling super, super, super!
Feeling super, super, super!
Come alive.
