A5 
Vera's face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun 
G5 
With a lighter and some hairspray  

Smoking in the girls' room 
A5 
Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's 
G5 
By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody 
A5 
Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some  
G5 
Now we look back and see that she didn't know how  
A5 
We never thought that we'd get caught up 
G5 
Stuck in the teenage waste 
 

               D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
               D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
 

A5                                                                                      G5 
Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the Kmart 
                                                                     A5 
Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled 
                                                           G5 
Slip the acid on your tongue roof top mall parkade 

We couldn't get enough 
A5 
Then count the stars and the ten million woes 
G5 
Just you and the universe judging each other 
A5 
We never knew that we'd get caught up 
G5 
Stuck in the teenage waste 
 

                D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
                D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
                D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
               D5 A5 G5 
As we let go 
 

A5 
It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong 
                                           G5 
Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar 

More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell 
A5 
At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break 

Such a good, good story to tell 
G5 
You bully, you break, you bully, you break 

You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake 
A5                                                                                                                    G5 
You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it and you're in it and it's spinning 

And it's wild 
A5 
We never thought that we'd get caught up 
G5 
Stuck in the teenage waste 
 

                 D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
                 D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
                 D5 A5 G5 
As we explode 
                 D5 A5 G5 
As we let go 
D5 
We're counting the stars 

We're counting the stars 
A5                          G5 
We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far 
D5 
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars 
A5                       G5 
We're not very far, we're not very far 
D5 
And it's you and me in the open air 
A5                    G5 
It's truth or dare, we don't care 
D5 
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars,  
A5                                 G5                                   D5 
we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
