MEAT LOAF - Wasted Youth lyrics

rate me

Wasted youth<br>Wasted youth<br>I remember everything!<br>I remember everything little thing, as if it happened yesterday<br>I was barely seventeen, and I once killed a boy with a fender guitar<br>I don't remember if it was a telecaster or a stratocaster<br>But I do remember that it had a heart of chrome, and a voice like a horny angel<br>I don't remember if it was a telecaster or a stratocaster<br>But I do remember that it wasn't at all easy<br><br>It required the perfect combanation of the right power chords<br>And the percise angel from which to strike!<br><br>The guitar bled for about a week afterwords<br>And the blood was zoot, dark and rich, like wild berrys<br>The blood of the guitar was chuck berry red<br>The guitar bled for about a week afterwords<br>But it rung out beautifly<br>And I was able to play notes that I had never even heard before<br><br>So I took my guitar<br>And I smashed it aganist the wall<br>I smashed it aganist the floor<br>I smashed it aganist the body of a varisty cheerleader<br>Smashed it aganist the hood of a car<br>Smasned it aganist a 1981 harley-davaidson<br>The harley howled in pain<br>The guitar howled in heat<br><br>And I ran up the stairs to my parents bedroom<br>Mommy and daddy were sleeping in the moonlight<br>Slowly I opened the door<br>Creeping in the shadows right up to the foot of their bed<br>I raised the guitar high above my head<br>And just as I was about to bring the guitar crashing down upon the center of the bed<br>My father woke up, screaming stop!<br>Wait a minute. stop it boy. what do you think your doing? <br>That's no way to treat an expensive musical instrument<br>And I said, God damn it daddy,<br>You know I love you, but you've got a hell of a lot to learn about rock n' roll
