Out here in the fields,
|
I fight for my meals,
|
I get my back into my living
|
|
I don't need to fight,
|
to prove I'm right,
|
And I don't need to be forgiven!
|
|
My kids ain't gonna break my heart,
|
My grief ain't gonna spoil their part,
|
This life just has to be a new one,
|
I'm gonna tan underneath a new sun.
|
|
Don't cry,
|
Don't raise your eye,
|
It's only teenage wasteland
|
|
Don't have the latest suit,
|
the long grass is my fruit,
|
I am really an ordinary man
|
|
The family is free,
|
to do just as they please,
|
we all sleep together in the caravan.
|
|
Hey you! Don't walk on the turnips!
|
My lord, when will they ever learn it?
|
Look there nations of traveling children
|
No where to go to escape the chill wind.
|
|
Don't cry,
|
Don't raise your eye,
|
It's only teenage wasteland
|
|
My kids ain't gonna break my heart,
|
My grief ain't gonna spoil their fun,
|
This life just has to be a new one,
|
I'm gonna tan underneath a new sun.
|
|
Sally, take my hand,
|
we'll travel south crossland,
|
put out the fire and don't you look past my shoulder.
|
|
The exodus is here,
|
the happy ones are near,
|
lets get home before we get older.
|
|
Teenage wasteland, teenage wasteland,
|
teenage wasteland, it's only teenage wasteland,
|
teenage wasteland, it's only teenage wasteland,
|
teenage wasteland, it's only teenage wasteland,
|
teenage wasteland, it's only teenage wasteland,
|
They're all wasted!
