Teenage had a race for the night time
Spent my cash on every high I could find
Wasted time in every school in L.A.
Getting loose, I didn’t care what the kids say
We’re white punks on dope
Mom & dad moved to Hollywood
Hang myself when I get enough rope
Can’t clean up, though I know I should
White punks on dope.”
In the comments, Rage Against The Machine drummer Brad Wilk appeared to share his thoughts, saying, “Tubes FTW! Awesome. I used to cover this song in HS as well.”
