Since I was born they couldn't hold me down Another misfit kid, another burned-out town
Never played by the rules I never really cared My nasty reputation takes me everywhere
I look and see it's not only me So many others have stood where I stand We are the young so raise your hands
They call us problem child We spend our lives on trial We walk an endless mile We are the youth gone wild We stand and we won't fall We're the one and one for all The writing's on the wall We are the youth gone wild
Boss screamin' in my ear about who I'm supposed to be Getcha a 3-piece Wall Street smile and son you'll look just like me
I said 'Hey man, there's something that you oughta know. I tell ya Park Avenue leads to Skid Row.'
I look and see it's not only me We're standin' tall ain't never a doubt We are the young, so shout it out
They call us problem child We spend our lives on trial We walk an endless mile We are the youth gone wild We stand and we won't fall We're the one and one for all The writing's on the wall We are the youth gone wild
They call us problem child We spend our lives on trial We walk an endless mile We are the youth gone wild We stand and we won't fall We're the one and one for all The writing's on the wall We are the youth gone wild We are the youth gone wild
