Rebel Youth Face

(album: Where Did All My Friends Go? - 2023)

My rebel youth face is now an IPO
Ya better sell out quick 'cause it's time to go
All the angry kids in China shelling out their dough
My rebel youth face is now an IPO

You were mistaken, we were to blame
We danced and sang and shouted out your name
Our innocence we paid to give it away
We pushed the papers forward until nothing remained
Spinning in circles, lost in the night
Our own reflection is living a lie
We lost the struggle, we lost the fight
But we'll wake up in the morning and we'll make it all right

My rebel youth face is now an IPO
Ya better sell out quick 'cause it's time to go
All the angry kids in China shelling out their dough
My rebel youth face is now an IPO

Wander together, wander alone
Stare at the streetlights and sit by the phone
We had a freedom such that you'll never know
All the photos never taken so there's nothing to show
Nothing to venture, nothing to gain
Lost in nostalgia, it's one and the same
We left the party right before it got lame
All the chips fell where they wanted and we left it to fate

My rebel youth face is now an IPO
Ya better sell out quick 'cause it's time to go
All the angry kids in China shelling out their dough
My rebel youth face is now an IPO

We thought we were dangerous
Beyond the pale and mysterious
We were so mischievous
We denied all the charges never knowing the outcome
Knowing the outcome
Knowing the outcome

My rebel youth face is now an IPO
Ya better sell out quick 'cause it's time to go
All the angry kids in China shelling out their dough
My rebel youth face is now an IPO

My rebel youth face is now an IPO
Ya better sell out quick 'cause it's time to go
All the angry kids in China shelling out their dough
My rebel youth face is now an IPO
