When I was a teenager
I wanted to rule the world

When I was a teenager
I wanted to disappear

I wanted everyone to fall to thier knees
When I walked in the room

When I was a teenager
I wanted to kiss a cheerleader

And I knew that I was something special

It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of

I knew that I would be so famous

It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time

Oh just a matter of time

Waiting for the war to end
Begging for a brand new friend

When I was a teenager
I was a miserable wreck

Do you like what I'm wearing
Do you approve of what I've said

When I was a teenager
There was something wrong with my head

And I knew that I was something special

It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of

I knew that I would be so famous

It's just a matter if time
It's just a matter of time

If we put our youth in jail
Their only crime: being born
How are we to find our way
Through this awful storm

I knew that I was something special
I kew that I would be so famous
I knew that I was something special

It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of

I knew that I was something special
I kew that I would be so famous
I knew that I was something special

It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
It's just a matter of time
