A Streetkid Named Desire Lyrics - The New America - Bad Religion

Well, it was punk - fifteen in the morning 

And it was time 

To stand my ground 

And as the gawks and stares bombarded me 

You know, I didn't even 

Hear a sound 

No one gave a damn 

If I was there or away 

If I died and went to hell, 

They'd throw a party on my grave 

And they'd all say, 

"this kid is just a fool, he'll never be cool, 

They might as well just ship him off 

To some other school" 

Plain destitute 

Just a little too guilty, just a little too soon 

That day was just like any other day 

No work, and no pay 

I knew that paradise was some other place 

And I'd get there another day 

I will find it before I expire 

Cuz I've got the desire 

Well, it was punk - fifteen in the evening 

And it was time to set the town on fire 

I saw my boots and my hair, 

As reflected in the mirror, 

Reveal a streetkid named desire 

I didn't give a damn 

Because I was just dying to be 

And as the hollywood street scene 

Left its mark on me 

I changed from a boy into a man 

I said "never again!" 

I stuck out my chin when I should have ran 

Shit in the fan 

I was driven so hard 

By the sound of my heart 

When the walls surround 

In deeper shades of blue 

And there's no voice of reason inside you 

And you search for meaning 

On an empty shelf 

Then you're always dreaming 

Of somewhere else 

Today is just like any other day 

No fear, no restraint 

I know that paradise is some other place 

And I will get there another day 

You can come with me, 

No conditions or fares 

Somehow, somewhere, 

I will find it before I expire, 

Cause I've got the desire
