Since I was born they couldn't hold me down
Another Misfit Kid, another burned-out town
I never played by the rules, I never really cared
My nasty reputation took me to Tokyo, Japan
Well, now you can see, it's not only me
So many others have stood where I stand
We are the young, raise your hands
They call us problem child
We spend our lives on trial
We walk an endless mile
(We are the youth gone wild)
We stand and we won't fall
We're wanted, one for all
The writing's on the wall
(We are the youth gone wild)
Boss screamin' in my ear about who I'm supposed to be
Get a three piece Wall Street smile, son, you'll look just like me
I said, "Hey man, there's somethin' that you oughta know
Park Avenue leads to Skid Row"
Well, now you can see, it's not only me
We're standin' tall, ain't never a doubt
We are the young, so shout it out
They call us problem child
We spend our lives on trial
We walk an endless mile
(We are the youth gone wild)
We stand and we won't fall
We're wanted, one for all
The writing's on the wall
(We are the youth gone wild)
They call us problem child
We spend our lives on trial
We walk an endless mile
(We are the youth gone wild)
We stand and we won't fall
We're wanted, one for all
The writing's on the wall
(We are the youth gone wild)
We are the youth gone wild
We are the youth gone wild
We are the youth gone wild
We are the youth gone wild
