Verse:
G
I was a teenage anarchist
Looking for a revolution

Read all the authors I knew the right slogans

There was no war but the class war
I was ready to set the world on fire
E
I was a teenage anarchist
Looking for a revolution
Chorus:
G D C Cadd2/B G
Dooooo you remember when you were young
D C Cadd2/B
And you wanted to set the world on fire
Dooooo you remember when you were young
And you wanted to set the world on fire
G
I was a teenage anarchist
But the politics were too convenient
Em
In the depths of their humanity
All I saw was bloodless ideology
G
With freedom as their doctrine
Guess who was the new authority
Em
I was a teenage anarchist
But the politics were too convenient

I was a teenage anarchist
But then the scene got too rigid
G
It was mob mentality
They set their rifle sights on me

Narrow visions of autonomy
You want me to surrender my identity

I was a teenage anarchist

The revolution was a lie
