[Verse 1]
              
They're gonna 

  
clean up your 

looks

With all the lies in the books
              
To make a citi

            
zen out of you
              
Because they s

 
leep with a gu

n
             
And keep an ey


e on you, son
             
So they can wa

             
tch all the th

         
ings you do

              
Because the dr


ugs never work

They gonna give you a smirk

Cause they got

 methods
              
Of keeping you

   
 clean
              
They're gonna 

 
rip off your h

eads
          
Your aspiratio

ns to shreds
            
Another cog in

              
 the murder ma

  
chine


[Chorus]
              
They said, all

 
 teenagers sca

re the living 

shit out of me
            
They could car

              
e less as long

    
 as someone'll

 bleed
   
So darken your

 clothes
            
Or strike a vi

olent pose
              
Maybe they'll 


leave you alon

e
        
But not me


[Verse 2]
              
The boys and g


irls in the cl

The awful names that they stick
              
You're never g

              
onna fit in mu

But if you're

nder your shir
