LaLion - LA DA DA

Age 18 when I lost my mind
The kids these days know they're not alright
And everybody told me boy you'll lose your life
Dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And mama always told me keep my soul inside
As if I'd get a penny for this rotten pride
And papa always told me better stay in line
As if I give a fuck about the voice inside
It goes
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
DA DA
It goes 1 for the money
And 2 for the nervous wrecks
3 for the honey
Who burns me with cigarettes
4 for the poor little boy
Filled with ignorance
Fighting for his life among the numb and the infamous
And Jimmy was a boy who found the world pretty strange
The government will take your life and tell you to aim
The media will feed you full of fear and disdain
The TV shows will lead to a line of cocaine (sniff)
And all of yal are saying just to smile and move on
But Jimmy been suppressing since the day he was born
And now he starts to crack
And crawl himself to a wall
And bash his fucking head til he makes sense of it all
Age 18 when I lost my mind
The kids these days know they're not alright
And everybody told me boy you'll lose your life
Dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And mama always told me keep my soul inside
As if I'd get a penny for this rotten pride
And papa always told me better stay in line
As if I give a fuck about the voice inside
It goes
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
DA DA
Jimmy talks to himself for days
The mirror image telling him it's all okay
The angel on his shoulder telling him to pray
The devil sending metal straight into his brain
It goes ACDC
He see the zeppelin
Roll his stone to rush no John Lennon
Can't imagine life blacked his sabbath
All he know is more guns and roses
His parents find his records and think he's thinking to reckless
They tell him he's a menace and he should listen to Elvis
But they don't know the only peace he gets from Def Leppards
They box him in and wonder why he's biting his pencils
Age 18 when I lost my mind
The kids these days know they're not alright
And everybody told me boy you'll lose your life
Dancing with the devil in the pale moonlight
And mama always told me keep my soul inside
As if I'd get a penny for this rotten pride
And papa always told me better stay in line
As if I give a fuck about the voice inside
It goes
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
LADA DA DA DA DA DA
LA DA DA
DA DA
