Lethal and Young
Embracing the Lethal Dance of Youthful Rebellion
Lyrics
It's been fun, destroying our bodies
Reflecting on the enjoyment of engaging in activities that harm the body.
It's been great, just being together
Expressing the joy of simply being together with someone.
Crash another car, smoke another cigarette
Casually mentioning destructive behaviors like car crashes and smoking.
Make love to all our favourites on the radio
Indulging in pleasures, including intimate moments while listening to favorite songs on the radio.
Cause we don't know how to make it go
Acknowledging a lack of knowledge on how to make a relationship work.
We're only told how to burn it down
Highlighting a tendency to follow destructive patterns rather than constructive ones.
Then skip town
Suggesting a willingness to leave and avoid responsibilities after causing chaos.
So don't look so damn tragic
Advising not to appear overly sorrowful or distressed.
You knew this had to pass and
Acknowledging that difficult times were expected and temporary.
So don't look so damn tragic
Reiterating the advice not to display excessive sadness, especially in front of family.
In front of your own mother
Emphasizing the inappropriateness of being overly tragic in the presence of one's mother.
She brought you here and now you have to stay, to stay
Stating that one must stay and face the consequences, as the mother brought them into the world.
So be thankful, that you're in love
Encouraging gratitude for being in a loving relationship.
Be thankful that you're in peices
Encouraging gratitude despite being broken or in pieces.
Cause baby it's a beggar being bitten by this but
Highlighting the challenges of being in a difficult situation but implying it's part of the experience.
After all you're all young
Acknowledging youthfulness as a time of recklessness and lack of awareness.
You're all lethal and young
Repeating the notion that the youth are both dangerous and inexperienced.
You're all lethal and young
-You're all lethal and young
