The Flaming Lips
Assassins of Youth

[Verse 1: Steven Drozd]
Assassins of youth
Even when they tell the truth
Another little part of you dies
Their truth is a lie
Assassins of youth
Shoot whoever they can shoot
They are still here going on and on
You're already gone, gone

[Chorus: Wayne Coyne]
I was young yesterday
But now everything has changed after today
And I don't know what to do
Oh, my younger self, oh I, I miss you
Yes, I do

[Verse 2: Steven Drozd]
Assassin of youth
Even when they tell the truth
Another little part of you dies
Their truth is a lie
Assassin of youth
Shoot whoever they can shoot
They are still here going on and on
You're already gone, gone
[Chorus: Wayne Coyne]
I was young yesterday
But now everything has changed after today
And I don't know what to do
Oh, my younger self, oh I, I miss you
Yes, I do

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro: Steven Drozd]
I guess I couldn't see
The joke, it was on me
How sad to think in time
Even your death will die
I can't believe you died
I can't believe their lies
They shoot whoever they can shoot
Assassins of youth
