The curfew comes at the crack of night The sad old wino aches to dissipate the fright The jet junk jiver speeds past in his machine Whatever happened to the teenage dream?
A broken god from a musty world Sweetly mouthed touched an onyx girl His prison bars were very hard to clean Whatever happened to theteenage dream, yeah
Do it, do it, do it to me, babe Do it to me, babe Whatever happened to the teenage dream, yeah
The Wizard of Oz and the bronzen thief Ruled my girl with teutonic teeth But all was lost when her mouth turned green Whatever happened to the teenage dream?
Silver Surfer and the Ragged Kid Are all sad and rusted boy, they don't have a gig Believe me Pope Paul, my toes are clean Whatever happened to the teenage dream? Yeah.
Black is black and white is white Some go to heaven and some get it light Your barber's a groove, but his wig, it screams Whatever happened to the teenage dream, yeah
I'm talking teen agey woman, I'm talking to you, "Play them blues to me boy" "ride it off"
