Oy. Thank you very much, Wat_Tyler : 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


(Copyright sometime in the 80s, Skid Row)

1. Now that's entirely your fault. You ASSUMED the band on the poster
Was fronted by Sebastian Bach.

2. I didn't really assume -- it's just the immediate association.
Still...Wat posted the poster.

The poster had "Skid Row" on it.

Even if the poster had said "1979" in big numbers, I still would have immediately gotten this in my head.

:argh:
