Album: Never Is Forever

Suburban Prince's Death Song

OH NO -

Growing up in a middle class suburb -
My life was such a bore -
To good to be true -
I discovered glue -
I passed out while still wanting more -

Cause I-I -
Was a pre-teen druggie -
All I loved was getting high -
I-I -
Was a pre-teen druggie -
Want to do it all the time -
Well I-I -
Was a pre-teen druggie -
All I loved was getting high -
I-I -
Was a pre-teen druggie -
Didn't know -
That I would die -

I didn't know -

I was thirteen when I first got the urge -
To taste the forbidden fruits -
I was one of the guys -
I always told lies -
And I never followed the rules -
My daddy was a drunk -
My mom called me a punk -
Tried to tie me to a rack -
Now my lungs are black -
From smokin' kakk -
You know I'm never -
Comin' back -

I-I -
Was a pre-teen druggie -
All I loved was getting high -
Trained by a fellow junkie -
For a long career in crime -
I-I -
Was a pre-teen druggie -
And I had to pay the price -
One day I got un-lucky -
Then I did -
And then I did -
I did some time -

You know that I-I -
Was a pre-teen druggie -
But then I saw the light -
I-I -
Changed my main man -
And Jesus became my life -
Now I'm a three piece junkie -
And I wonder why? -
I-I -
I'm a three piece junkie -
Didn't know -

That I would -
That I would die -
I didn't know -
