Christmas trees and families are totally out of date
The forty year old teenager puts make up on his face

He's stuck in a loop, he and his troops
Smart looking suits, he wants to be juvenile
He's dying his hair gray back to black
Painting his bag, he has to be versatile

Life is short, yours even shorter
But he will bend, try to extend
Act like a fully young man
He's getting high on a common place
Like when he tries to be teenager for life

His mother complains it's getting late
Start losing fate, "where are my grandchildren?"
Your girlfriend, each month, McDonald's for lunch
Plays in a band, she sees a point in men

Life is short, yours even shorter
But he will bend, try to extend
Act like a fully young man
He's getting high on a common place
Like when he tries to be teenager for life

Life is short, yours even shorter
But he will bend, try to extend
Act like a fully young man
He's getting high on a common place
Like when he tries to be teenager for life
He just tries to be a teenager
For his life, teenager for life
Teenager for life
