It’s tough to be a teenager, no one really knows br What the pressure is like in school, this is how it goes. br br I wake up every morning, and stare into this face br I wanna be good lookin’, but I feel like a disgrace. br br My friends they seem to like me, if I follow through with their dare, br But when I try to be myself, they never seem to care. br br My mom, well she keeps saying, I gotta make the grade br While both my parents love me, it slowly seems to fade. br br It seems like everyone I know is trying to be so cool br And every time I try, I end up just a fool. br br I’ve thought about taking drugs, I really don’t want to you know br But I just don’t fit in, and it’s really startin’ to show. br br Maybe if I could make the team, I’ll stand out in the crowd br If they could see how hard I try, I know they would be proud. br br You see I’m still a virgin, my friends they can’t find out br Cause if they really knew the truth, I know they’d laugh and shout. br br Sometimes I really get so low, I want to cash in. br My problems really aren’t so bad, if I think of how life’s been. br br Sometimes I’m really lost, and wonder what to do br I wonder where to go, who can I talk to. br br It’s tough to be a teenager, sometimes life’s not fair br I wish I had somewhere to go, and someone to CARE.
