I Lost My Innocence Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I could feel the sections of my
Brain detaching
I could feel the fluid in my head go bad
I could see my future in his
Leather jacket
Shining in the darkness of
My schoolboy past

[Chorus]
I lost my innocence
To a boy named Vincent
Box of Girl Scout Thin Mints
And a pack of Winstons
I lost my innocence
To a boy named Vincent
In a single incident I was changed

[Verse 2]
Now I'm a little creature
In the lazy evening
I'm a little creature
And they can't catch me
Lying semi-naked on his rooftop dreaming
Dreaming of the creature
That I used to be

[Chorus]
I lost my innocence
To a boy named Vincent
Box of Girl Scout Thin Mints
And a pack of Winstons
I lost my innocence
To a boy named Vincent
And a new existence soon found me

[Verse 3]
I looked a real long time
To find the border
Of a kingdom of love, outside the
Reigning order
And I found my angel on a motorcycle
I'm a queer for life
Outlaw, outsider and uh

[Chorus]
I lost my innocence
To a boy named Vincent
In a single instance
I joined the true resistance
I lost my innocence
To a boy named Vincent
In a single instant I was set free

How did the song develop during the recording process?

I love how “I Lost My Innocence” turned out, both musically and lyrically. It began as a kind of Beatles and Beach Boys-inspired mid-’60s rock thing, but the band helped turn it into its more original-sounding self. I love the low horns and the...
