Lyrics:

I never got high the first time I tried

Just like everyone

I know the cigarettes were bold

For a little four foot nothing ten year-old

On hot summer days

We'd go down to the mall

Send security climbin' up the walls

Just like everyone

We were forever young


I am not so original

Never to be cynical

A little unstable

Clinically labeled

Fucked-up all-American

I am totally miserable

Ever to be pigeon-holed

Completely obsessive

Manic depressive

Fucked-up all-American


We lived out our lives like we would never die

Just like everyone

But before Keith went to bed

He put a double barrel shotgun to his head


I am not so original

Never to be cynical

A little unstable

Clinically labeled

Fucked-up all-American

I am totally miserable

Ever to be pigeon-holed

Completely obsessive

Manic depressive

Fucked-up all-American


Smashing bottles and cans

For reasons I don't understand

When I look at the past

It's like staring at pieces of broken glass


I am not so original

Never to be cynical

A little unstable

Clinically labeled

Fucked-up all-American

I am totally miserable

Ever to be pigeon-holed

Completely obsessive

Manic depressive

Fucked-up all-American
