Hey! Im only fourteen

Sickly n thin

Tried all of my life

Just to grow me a chin

It popped out once

But my dad pushed it in

Why did he hurt me?

Hes my next of kin...

Hes a mex-i-kin



Im lonely n green

Too small for my shirt

If simmons was here

I could feature my hurt

Scared of the future

Hope I dont grow

I know nobody likes me

cause everywhere I go

They say no

They say no

They say no



Now Im older

Got a place in the town, babe

Got a chin on my shoulder

n it keeps growing down n down n down

Im horny n lonely

n I wish I was dead

Why am I livin?

I wanna be dead instead

Thats right, I said

I wanna be dead instead

Now dig this:



I wanna be dead

In bed

Please kill me

cause that would thrill me

I wanna be dead

In bed

Please kill me

cause that would thrill me

(etc, repeat)
