Lyrics

[00:45.032] You may be broke now, and you may be bored
[00:49.233] Call you delinquent or leave you ignored
[00:53.222] You'll get what you want
[00:56.011] Drive to distraction, crash on the way
[01:00.012] Watch your reaction, wait 'til you say
[01:04.000] You'll get what you want
[01:08.000] It hurts if you can't
[01:13.000] Young offender, what's your defence?
[01:19.232] You're younger than me, obviously
[01:28.289] Young offender, why the pretence?
[01:34.032] You don't agree, I know, I know
[01:42.022] I'll do what you want if you want me enough
[01:45.022] I'll put down my book and start falling in love
[01:49.023] Or isn't that done?
[01:53.024] How graceful your movements, how bitter your scorn
[01:57.223] I've been a teenager since before you were born
[02:01.022] And I'm younger than some
[02:05.002] I've only begun
[02:09.322] Young offender, what's your defence?
[02:16.231] You're younger than me, obviously
[02:23.233] When I get in your way, or open your eyes?
[02:31.222] Who will give whom the bigger surprise?
[02:39.023] Is that fire in your eyes, or the glow of machines?
[02:42.334] Watch how your fingers burn over the keys
[02:46.222] So sure what you do
[02:50.022] I haven't a clue
[02:55.000] Young offender, what's your defence?
[03:01.000] You're younger than me, obviously
[03:10.243] Young offender, how you resent
[03:16.022] The lovers you need, it hurts when they bleed
[03:25.232] Young offender, why the pretence?
[03:32.034] You don't agree, I know, I know
