Song lyrics
They're gonna clean up your looks
With all the lies in the books
To make a citizen out of you
Because they sleep with a gun
And keep an eye on you, son
So they can watch all the things you do

Because the drugs never work
They're gonna give you a smirk
'Cause they got methods of keeping you clean
They're gonna rip up your heads,
Your aspirations to shreds
Another cog in the murder machine

They said all teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

The boys and girls in the clique
The awful names that they stick
You're never gonna fit in much, kid
But if you're troubled and hurt
What you got under your shirt
Will make them pay for the things that they did

They said all teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

Ohhh yeah!

They said all teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

All together now!

Teenagers scare the living shit out of me
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me
[x2]

Personally, I think this song is THE BEST ever.
Even though I am a teenager, I scare myself. Badly. Some times I scream because I'm scared of myself, which incites more scardness towards myself and other teens. I can't go to public school because of it!
This was my favorite song when I started listening to MCR. A year later, I still love it just as much.
"Teenagers scare the living shit out of my," THAT IT ME SO MUCH!
I think Gerard has AMAZING vocals, his voice is SO unique and beautiful. The guitar is GREAT and it has an excellent beat.
It's not inciting violence, it's saying how teenagers are these days. Even the ones that aren't punk and scary, that are "nice" and preppy, they are even worse IMO. They smile at you and stab you in the back. At the the "scary punks" are forward, or at least don't say they like you when they don't. At least that's in my experience.
All-in-all, this song is GREAT! MCR rocks, and this is an AMAZING song!

oh, and saberist, the lyrics aren't inciting violence - they're describing what teenagers are like today. there is way too much violence now - not just among teenagers, in society in general - and this song merely tells truth.

That's what teenagers are like nowadays. tHAT'S WHAT THIS SONG IS ABOUT:

Am I Bothered

Sitting at the desk listening to the teacher droning on about shit. I'm trying to concentrate but all I can think about is socialising with my mates outside. Who needs school anyway I ask myself? The teacher finds me not paying attention and I say to him

Chorus
I'm trying to concentrate but this lesson is just rubbish. Who wants to know about E = MC2? All I'm trying to do is be a teenage rebel in front of my mates. Everybody has a little bit of a rebellious side. I want to be like Kevin, Lauren or Vicky Pollard who are teenage characters. I want to be like Kevin saying "do I have to?" . I also want to be like Lauren saying Am I bothered. I want to be like Vicky Pollard Saying Yeah but no but.


Now I'm going to the principal's office. The teacher obviously thought my behaviour was despicable but I thought I was expressing how I feel. Mind I know I wasn't cool about it but you know. Well I suppose being a teenage rebel is good cos you get such a high from getting told off. I think I'm an adrenaline junkie
(CHORUS)

As a result of my behaviour I've been excluded. It looks like I'm gonna have to clean up my act. It just ain't cool is it? People tell me. Well I suppose being a teenage rebel is good cos you get such a high from getting told off. I think I'm an adrenaline junkie.
(CHORUS)

A year later I'm pregnant and I'm only 15. I want to get out of my house as soon as I turn 16. Other people aren't ready to grow up but I am. I've got an ASBO, caution and yes I'm proud of it. I'm gonna get a council flat soon so you can go away and kiss my ass. I don't care what people say cos I'm gonna b e a chav. A typical chav of that too. I ain't got any GCSEs. (CHORUS)

It is a catchy tune but the lyrics could be very dangerous to the wrong people. I fight for their freedom of speech so I can't say they do not have the right to sing it. However, they have the power to guide troubled youth and guiding them to violence is not in the best interest of society. Case in point.

Bevis and Butt head____"Fire, Fire........Fire. Although, very funny and real late night talent. The parents of the child that set that fire probably never thought that would happen to them. Granted, it was a cartoon for mature audiences.

Ultimately, there was a law suit and the television network lost.

We hold ourselves accountable as a society and these lyrics are on the raggedy edge of inciting violence.

noak35 pretty much said exactly what I think of this song... "This song is really bad. The lyrics and vocals are really, really bad. The guy can't sing."

ugh, the lyrics are so bland and boring, and the vocals are just plain pathetic. Is Gerard southern, western, or a broadway actor? I think he's decided to be all three at once. And well, it doesn't work, as clearly shown by the whole ablum of The Black Parade.

I would've bet money that this song was by the Offspring. Lo and behold, MCR. Pretty cool, and a definite flashback to the '90s.

I was wrongly accused of not understanding this song; I DO understand it.
And, furthermore, I CAN comprehend what is being shown to me all at once. I am not stupid.
I appreciate the message against teenage violence that this song delivers, I just hate the way they present the message. I think it is presented in an annoying and unoriginal way. I find the lyrics to be boring with no "deep" meaning behind them.

I doubt that someone would hear a song, hate it, figure out the meaning of the song, and then like it only because of the song's meaning.

It is possible to hate a song that you understand perfectly well.
