I never got high the first time I tried
Just like everyone I know the cigarettes were bold
For a little four foot nothing, ten year oldOn hot summer days, we'd go down to the mall
Send security climbin' up the walls
Just like everyone, we were forever youngI am not so original
Never to be cynical
A little unstable
Clinically labeled
Fucked up, all AmericanI am totally miserable
Ever to be pigeon-holed
Completely obsessive
Manic depressive
Fucked up, all AmericanWe lived out our lives like we would never die
Just like everyone but before Keith went to bed
He put a double barrel shotgun to his headI am not so original
Never to be cynical
A little unstable
Clinically labeled
Fucked up, all AmericanI am totally miserable
Ever to be pigeon-holed
Completely obsessive
Manic depressive
Fucked up, all AmericanSmashing bottles and cans
For reasons I don't understand
When I look at the past
It's like staring at pieces of broken glassI am not so original
Never to be cynical
A little unstable
Clinically labeled
Fucked up, all AmericanI am totally miserable
Ever to be pigeon-holed
Completely obsessive
Manic depressive
Fucked up, all American
