We look cool
We don’t even have to try
try try try
We’re so hip
Young wild free
We don’t claim anything
No responsibilities
Not even for our own hearts

Time runs out?
Not for us
We stay up tick tock
Past the clock
Before we known where we’ve gone
We’ve been up
Dawn to dawn
Yeah, we’ll always have more fun


We’re so hip
Can’t you hear us
Read our lips
Neon plastered: pink and purple
That’s the style
If we’ve done anything wrong
We’ll be sorry when we’re dead
Dead dead dead


We don’t think
We’re too young for consequence
We’re your youth
Yes, you raised us
Kept us safe
Tucked us in
We’re not to blame

We’re so hip
Can’t you hear us
Read our lips
Neon plastered: pink and purple
That’s the style
If we’ve done anything wrong
We’ll be sorry when we’re dead
Dead dead dead

We look cool
We don’t even have to try
try try try
We dress up
But we’re not part of your play
Play play play

We’re so hip
Can’t you hear us
Read our lips
Neon plastered: pink and purple
That’s the style
If we’ve done anything wrong
We’ll be sorry when we’re dead
Dead dead dead

(And all our sins are just misprints)
