All Revved Up With No Place To Go / Wasted Youth

I was nothing but a hungry boy looking for something new
And it was nothing but an endless dream
But it was something
Something like a dream come true

I was out on the prowl
Down by the edge of the track
And like a son of a Jackal
I've been running with the pack now

Every day, every night
I feel the fever grow
Do you know what it's like?
All revved up with no place to go
Do you know what it's like?
All revved up with no place to go

Let the revvels begin
Let the cages be opened
Let the flags all be unfurled
I'm just a blue-eyed, blonde-haired black-hearted boy
Killing time 'til the end of the world

What's the meaning of life?
What's the meaning of it all?
You gotta learn to dance before you learn to crawl
You gotta learn to dance before you learn to crawl

Every day, every night
I feel the fever grow
Do you know what it's like?
All revved up with no place to go
Do you know what it's like?
All revved up with no place to go

Wasted youth
Wasted youth, ah
Wasted youth
Wasted youth

They got a file on you and it's a mile long
And they say that I've got all of the proof
That you're just another case of arrested development
And just another wasted youth

You know that you're in need of some radical discipline
You know you gotta face the truth
I bet you're just another case of arrested development
And just another wasted youth

They say I'm wild, and I'm reckless (wild, wild, wild)
You should be acting your age (wild, wild, wild, wild)
I'm an impressionable child in a tumultuous world
And they say, "You're at a difficult stage"

But it seems to me to the contrary
Of all the crap they're going to put on the page

That a wasted youth is better by far than a (wasted youth)
Wise and productive old age (wasted youth)
A wasted youth is better by far than a (wasted youth)
Wise and productive old age (wasted youth)

A wasted youth is better by far than a (wasted youth)
Wise and productive old age (wasted youth)
A wasted youth is better by far than a (wasted youth)
Wise and productive old age (wasted youth)

A wasted youth is better by far than a
Wise and productive old age
A wasted youth is better by far than a
Wise and productive old age

Well, I was nothing but a desperate all-American boy
Looking out for something to do
And it was nothing but an endless all-American dream
But it were something like a dream come true
I was out on the prowl, down by the edge of the track
And like a son of a Jackal, I was running with the pack

But every day and every night
I feel the fever grow
All revved up with no place to go
All revved up with no place to go
All revved up with no place to go
All revved up with no place to go
All revved up with no place to go
