The Bourbon's gone Mercury hasn't been in Retrograde for that long Oh no Stop your hiding And drop that bong Do you remember when I used to sing you this little song? I wasted my youth On a poppy, du-du-du-du-du Just for fun I wasted my youth On a poppy, du-du-du-du-du Just because And everybody knows it's a tightrope The cookie crumbles into dust And everybody knows we're in trouble Du-du-du-du-du, candy crush Just 'cause you're young Don't mean nothing Don't mean nothing We are here and we're gone Do something while your heart is thumping I wasted my youth On a poppy, du-du-du-du-du Just for because I wasted my youth On a poppy, du-du-du-du-du Just for fun And everybody knows it's a tightrope The cookie crumbles into dust And everybody knows we're in trouble Du-du-du-du-du, candy crush Wasted my youth Wasted youth Du-du-du-du-du Wasted youth Du-du-du-du-du Wasted youth Du-du-du-du-du

I'm wasting my time with you But I like it, I like it too I'm wasting away, it's true You did it by phone Didn't have the guts to say it to my face Guess I never knew you at all Now, I haven't left my room in a couple of days I'm heartbroken And a little bit angry Was it all for nothing? All the time I won't get back I could have been falling in and out of love Kissing strangers in the club Learning more about myself It's a sad, sad truth I could have been young and reckless, far from wise Instead of making sacrifices Sad but true Wasted all my youth on you I'm wasting my time with you But I like it, I like it too I'm wasting away, it's true Wasted all my youth on you I'm wasting my time with you But I like it, I like it too I'm wasting away, it's true Wasted all my youth I could have been falling in and out of love Kissing strangers in the club Learning more about myself It's a sad, sad truth I could have been young and reckless, far from wise Instead of making sacrifices Sad but true Wasted all my youth on you I'm wasting my time with you But I like it, I like it too I'm wasting away, it's true Wasted all my youth on you I'm wasting my time with you But I like it, I like it too I'm wasting away, it's true Wasted all my youth All these years I've spent on you Got nothing to show, it's sad but truth I could have been young and reckless, far from wise Instead of making sacrifices Sad but true Wasted all my youth on you

Wasted Youth Wasted Youth I remember everything I remember every little thing as if it only happened yesterday I was barely seventeen, and I once killed a boy with a Fender guitar I don't remember if it was Telecaster or Stratocaster But I do remember that it had a heart of chrome, and a voice like a horny angel I don't remember if it was Telecaster or Stratocaster But I do remember that it wasn't at all easy It required the perfect combination of the right powerchords And the precise angle from which to strike! The guitar bled for about a week afterwards And the blood was, ooh, dark and rich, like wild berries The blood of the guitar was Chuck Berry red The guitar bled for about a week afterwards But it rung out beautifully And I was able to play notes that I had never even heard before So I took my guitar And I smashed it against the wall I smashed it against the floor I smashed it againt the body of a varsity cheerleader Smashed it against the hood of a car Smashed it against a 1981 Harley-Davidson The Harley howled in pain The guitar howled in heat And I ran upstairs to my parents bedroom Mommy and Daddy were sleeping quietly in the moonlight Slowly I opened the door Creeping into the shadows right up to the foot of their bed I raised the guitar high above my head And just as I was about to bring the guitar crashing down upon the center of the bed My father woke up, screaming "STOP" "Wait a minute, stop it boy! What do you think you're doing?" "Thats no way to treat an expensive musical instrument" And I said "Goddamn it, Daddy" "You know I love you, but you've got a hell of a lot to learn about rock 'n' roll"

Ova mala me vrti ko rulet Opet ju zanima gdje Zato ide sve na blef Voli kada brojim racks Uye eh sorry al ti neću biti bestfriend Uye eh dobro znam da voli kad sam wasted Ne znam čemu bol Ne znam niti zaš Niti kad će opet doć Ne znam čemu bol Srce mi probada Ljubav ima velik cost Pita me šta je to I jeli namjerno Pola grada sada zna da Sam te zaveo Skupa u pakao Jer druge nema nam Ja sam wasted A ona nije trijezna sva Pita me šta je to I jeli namjerno Pola grada sada zna da Sam te zaveo Skupa u pakao Jer druge nema nam Ja sam wasted A ona nije trijezna sva Sve čuje ona iza Lijepa ko Louvre Mona Lisa Prvo u klubu pa u tvom stanu Ja te čuvam Francis Ngannou Tu noć kad vrijeme nam je stalo Sve bih dao da sam vječno zaspo Ova mala kreće se o'pasno Dobro znam da tjera me na zlo Nisam sebičan već sve bi sam Ne ko većina ne vodim vječni rat Bebe gdje si sad Ti ko Sex i Grad Trebaš nešto bebe Ja ti serviram Sve trebo bi mjenjat Koliko ću ostat to sam niti ne znam Svaku noć s drugom da bolje osjećam Tvoje su usne mi jedina težnja Pita me šta je to I jeli namjerno Pola grada sada zna da Sam te zaveo Skupa u pakao Jer druge nema nam Ja sam wasted A ona nije trijezna sva Pita me šta je to I jeli namjerno Pola grada sada zna da Sam te zaveo Skupa u pakao Jer druge nema nam Ja sam wasted A ona nije trijezna sva

I live my life in these four walls Head full of dreams but I'm afraid to tell them all I climb the staircase Carry all the dead weight Just to fall, fall, fall, fall, fall There is a box I keep it closed All full of ashes from the letters that I wrote Maybe tomorrow The pills I couldn't swallow They'll seem small, small, small, small, small Ahh Sometimes I feel like A raindrop in the ocean Fell from the sky I Melted into nothing Don't know why (why) Last night I wrote my own eulogy Here lies the girl who never let herself be free Ain't it ironic The first time I was honest I was gone, gone, gone, gone, gone I'm not one to wear my heart out on my sleeve But here I am, will you take all of me? Thought love was for the perfect That I don't deserve it I was wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong Ahh
