Ash - Teenage Wildlife Lyrics






Well, how come you only want tomorrow
With its promise of something hard to do
A real life adventure worth more than pieces of gold
Blue skies above, sun on your arms strength in your stride
And hope in those squeaky clean eyes
You'll get chilly receptions everywhere you go
Blinded with desire - I guess the season is on

So you trade by shadow boxing, search for the truth
But it's all, but it's all used up
Break open your million dollar weapon
And push your luck, still you push, still you push your luck
A broken nosed mogul are you
One of the new wave boys

Same old thing in brand new drag
Comes sweeping into view, oh-ooh
As ugly as a teenage millionaire
Pretending it's a whizz kid world
You'll take me aside, and say
"Well, David, what shall, shall I do?
They wait for me in the hallway"
I'll say "Don't ask me, I don't know any hallways"
But they move in numbers and they've got me in a corner
And I feel like a group of one, no-no
They can't do this to me
I'm not some piece of teenage wildlife

Those midwives to history put on their bloody robes
And the word is that the hunted one is out there on his own
And you're alone for maybe the last time
And you breathe for a long time
Then you howl like a wolf in a trap
And you aren't look behind

You fall to the ground like a leaf from the tree
And look up one time at that vast blue sky
Scream out aloud as they shoot you down
No no, I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife
I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife

And no one will have seen and no one will confess
The fingerprints will prove that you couldn't pass the test
There'll be others on the line filing past, who'll whisper low
'I miss you he had to go'
Well each to his own, he was
Another piece of teenage wildlife, oh-oh-oh-ohh
Another piece of teenage wildlife, oh-oh-oh-ohh
Another piece of teenage wild...
Life
Wild - Life
Wild - Life
Wild - Life

  1. k.... s....

    Normally bowie covers are crap but I really like this!

  2. J.... W....

    Better than Bowie

    J.... W....

    not even close

  3. M.... G....

    Rock'n cover

  4. p.... ....

    Well the latest EP is all covers you know, this song is a David Bowie cover. Did you find A-Z series underwhelming? I thought it was pretty rockin'; songs like Arcadia, Binary, Spaceshot, Ichiban, Command recaptured their old sound pretty well!

  5. l.... ....

    Ash is my favorite band, but the latest stuff is just so underwhelming... sounds like just another band...

  6. C.... ....

    Awesome! This is my Ash!

  7. m.... ....

    best thing since free all angels ... bring back charlotte!
