Straight A's - Dead Kennedys

[00:00.01]Brain death, mind death, school damage
[00:04.12]Straight A's
[00:07.15]
[00:18.68]Sixteen, on the honor roll, I wish that I was dead
[00:22.52]Hate my parents, I got zits and bruises around my head
[00:26.34]Pressure's on to get good grades so I can be like them
[00:30.16]Do my homework all the time, I can't go out just then
[00:34.03]
[00:43.13]People they ain't friends at all, they tease and suck me dry
[00:46.95]They yell at me when I **** up and party while I cry
[00:50.60]I look so big on paper yet I feel so very small
[00:54.74]Want to die and you don't care, just stride on down the hall
[00:58.59]Suicide, suicide
[01:00.49]Read the paper, wonder why
[01:02.46]Turn the light out, then you cry
[01:04.33]It's your fault, you made me die
[01:06.28]
[01:10.10]Touch me, won't you touch me now, so frozen I can't love
[01:13.71]When I was born my mama cried and picked me up with gloves
[01:17.72]Girls, they kick me in the eye, want answers to the tests
[01:21.53]When they get them they drive off and leave me home to rest
[01:25.54]
[01:31.71]Hold my head, make me warm
[01:34.19]Tell me I am loved
[01:35.71]Give me hope, let me cry
[01:39.62]Make me feel, give me touch
[01:43.46]
[01:45.29]The window's broken, bleeding, screaming, lying in the hall
[01:48.83]I'm gone, no one remembers me, a picture on the wall
[01:52.86]\"He was such a bright boy, the future in his hands\"
[01:56.47]Or a spineless human pinball shot around by your demands
[02:00.62]Suicide, suicide
[02:02.53]Going to sleep and when I die
[02:04.48]You'll look up and realize
[02:06.41]Then look down and wipe your eyes
[02:08.36]And then go back to your stupid lives
[02:10.29]Aw, shit!
