The money, the power, the ***, the fame
The lies, the guilt, the pride, the shame
The drugs, the party, the rules, the game
The rock, the roll, the teenage, the waste
The money, the power, the ***, the fame
The lies, the guilt, the pride, the shame
The drugs, the party, the rules, the game
The rock, the roll, the teenage waste
****** your imagination
And all that you believe in
****** all your reasons
And everything you dream of
We are the drugs inside your head, yeah
We are the ones you won't forget
We are the weakness in your knees
We are your friends and enemies
We like it better in the world when it's burning down
Better in the world when it's burning for you
This is America
We are the youth
Can't we hook up
And teach me to shoot
Wasted America
We are the kings
Teach me to die
And teach me to live
The money, the power, the ***, the fame
The lies, the guilt, the pride, the shame
The drugs, the party, the rules, the game
The rock, the roll, the teenage, the waste
The money, the power, the ***, the fame
The lies, the guilt...
****** your imagination
****** all you believe in
It all means nothing now
****** all your dreams, girl
They will all thank you in a nice way
So ****** your ******g status
And your money
And your passion
And ****** you, and ****** me
