Young, Dumb, and Stung Lyrics

Don't care what you think, you think I care.
(You humans can't see what pretty music came to be.)
I see where you stand, I'm standing here.
(So count the fuse flaming with me- 1, 2, 3!)

(Yeah!) You won't be stopping me yet.
(Yeah!) You won't be stopping me yet.
(Yeah!) Thought I was covered in sweat,
(Yeah!) Fast asleep in the bed you wet?

I'm young, (You bet I'm in it.)
I'm dumb, (You bet I'm in it.)
I'm stung. (You bet I'm deep in the thick of it, baby.)

Don't care what you think, you think I care.
(I'll call you Richard if you will, you bag of swill.)
Define your spine, you're standing in line.
(Death is a crutch for me and mine, we're singin')

(Yeah!) You think you know me so well.
(Yeah!) You think I purchase what you sell.
(Yeah!) Pickled in your private hell.
(Yeah!) I will scream and I will yell.

I'm young, (You bet I'm in it.)
I'm dumb, (You bet I'm in it.)
I'm stung. (You bet I'm deep in the thick of it, baby.)

When I was 10 years young, my douch best friend
Decided that I was just not cool enough for him.
My awkward frame and buck-tooth grin
Were no accoutrements for one with a new skin.
Late last week, I saw that man
He was far too high to grasp that I shook his hand
I've got my pride and my rock band
Singin' words that he don't understand.

Don't care what you think, you think I care.
(Don't care what you think, you think I care.)
Don't care what you think, you think I care.
(Don't care what you think, you think I care.)

I'm young, (You bet I'm in it.)
I'm dumb, (You bet I'm in it.)
I'm stung. (You bet I'm deep in the thick of it, baby.)

I'm young, I'm dumb, I'm stung.
I'm young, I'm dumb, I'm stung.

Young, dumb, stung.
Young, dumb, stung.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I don't know, I thought of "stung" as like, a bee sting, something that hurt him. He's young, he's dumb, and he's damaged. Okay maybe not damaged, but I don't think it means drunk. Just that he's been through shit, he's no stranger to pain, and though he's young and dumb, he's not inexperienced and he's got enough sense because life knocked sense in to him with everything that's been thrown at him.

At least, that's how I like to twist the words to revolve around me, which is what I do to as many songs as possible to make them more personal. shrugs

I think he says "You think I'd purchase what you sell" instead of "You think a purse is what you sell"

"My awkward frame and buck-tooth grin / Were no a couture mall from one with a new skin" should be "were no accoutrements for one with a new skin."
