Against Me! - I Was a Teenage Anarchist Lyrics
I was a teenage anarchist, looking for a revolution.I had the style, I had the ambition.I read all the authors, I knew the right slogans.There was no war but the class war.I was ready to set the world on fire.I was a teenage anarchist, looking for a revolution.Do you remember when you were young and you wanted to set the world on fire?I was a teenage anarchist, but the politics were too convenient.In the depths of their humanity all I saw was bloodless ideology.And with freedom as the doctrine, guess who was the new authority?I was a teenage anarchist, but the politics were too convenient.Do you remember when you were young and you wanted to set the world on fire?I was a teenage anarchist, but then the scene got too rigid.It was a mob mentality, they set their rifle sights on me.Narrow visions of autonomy, you want me to surrender my identity.I was a teenage anarchist, the revolution was a lie.Do you remember when you were young and you wanted to set the world on fire?I was a teenage anarchist.
