Like a fly to a spider, you're under the spell
It's the game and the liar for those who toll the bell
You're more than just a name, you fight for the right
Like a moth to a flame, you see the bait, you bite
You're restless and wild and walking the line
You're not just another pretty face
Need an answer fast, and you're running out of time
And the night goes on for days
(Young and wasted)
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
(Young and wasted)
You been branded by the iron, you been cut by the knife
There's a monkey on your back, running up and down your spine, yeah
Up and down your spine
You hunger for the fire and run with the pack
But you know damn well there ain't no turning back
Ain't no turning back, no no
You're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't
You laugh in the face of the fates
Fallen angels spread their wings
So you cross the gates of hate
(Young and wasted)
I can almost taste it, I can almost taste it
(Young and wasted)
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah, ooh yeah
[Guitar solo]
You’re damned if you do, you're damned if you don't
You laugh in the face of the fates
Fallen angels spread their wings
So let the heavens say
(Young and wasted)
(Young and wasted)
(Young and wasted)
I can almost taste it, I can almost taste it
(Young and wasted)
(Young and wasted)
(Young and wasted)
(Young and wasted)
