Explode Lyrics
With a ligther and some hairspray
Smoking in the girls' room
Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's
By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody
Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some
We never thought that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste
As we explode
As we explode
As we explode
Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled
Slip the acid on your tongue rooftop shopping mall parkade
We couldn't get enough
Just you and the universe judging each other
We never knew that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste
As we explode
As we explode
As we let go
Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar
More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell
At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break
Such a good, good story to tell
You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake
You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it and you're in it and it's spinning
We never thought that we'd get caught up
Stuck in the teenage waste
As we explode
As we explode
As we let go
We're counting the stars
We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
We're not very far, we're not very far
It's truth or dare, we don't care
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
On her website, she said that this song came from a poem she wrote called "Teenage Waste". and it was about how when you're a teenage you want to try everything and talks about teenage experimentation and fun as well as the violence and aggression. I love this song by the way, one of my favorites by her, she's a great writer, and one of my favorite artists.
Me too!!! Wow. Great song, great beat. I think this song is just about teenage life, and wanting to grow up.
I think this song is great. It is about the different experiences that teenagers go through and how stressful it can be. I think that a lot of people do not notice how hard being a teen is. By the way, to the comment above: Crayon Drawn Cat: I think that Avril Lavigne is an extremely talented writer. She may not have a life time of experiences but that doesnt mean that she can't understand other people and thier experiences. I think you need to apprieciate the difference and talents and abilities of others
awesome song, could listen to it over an dover
Is this the song Avril Lavigne person wrote? I heard there was one song Nelly Furtado sang that was written by Avril or something. Perhaps I'm wrong. O_-
Are you fucking kidding me? Avril Lavigne definitely did not write this song. Avril Lavigne doesn't have the musical capacity nor the life experience to write a song this intense. This song is my life. People seriously discount Nelly Furtado and her ability to represent the crazy teenage girl. I know that's not all that she's about, but I definitely identify with that aspect of her lyrics, and how can not love how quirky and unique the music.
I just love the "it's a fight...and it's spinning" That's awesome! So biting, it's wonderful. I also love her voice just after that bit and towards the end, she's sort of crying "we're counting the stars" it's so thrilling.
This is a very wonderful song. But i have a question. At the beginning what does she say and what does it mean?
She's talking about things that happen while your a teenager...and how they end up as insignificant gossip...and looking back you realize how horrible it was
I think this song is talking about all the things teenages do and don't realize until they're older how stupid the things were.
