Since I was born
They couldn't hold me down
Another misfit kid
Another burned-out town
I never played by the rules
And I never really cared
My nasty reputation
Takes me everywhere
I look and see
It's not only me
So many others have stood where I stand
We are the young, so 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 one and one for all
The writing's on the wall
We are the youth gone wild
Boss screamin' my ear 'bout who I'm s'posed to be
Get a three-piece Wall Street smile, and son you'll look just like me
I said "Hey, man, there's somethin' you oughta know
Well I tellya Park Avenue leads to (Skid Row!)"
Well I look and see
It's not only me
We're standing 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 one and one for all
The writing's on the wall
We are the youth gone wild
Well lemme hear ya get 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 one and one for all
The writing's on the wall
We are the youth gone wild
We are the youth gone wild!
