Welcome to a teenage mind, why don't you come on in?
It may need a new manager; you can apply within
The old one went quite crazy, she just broke down in tears
You could see the hatred on her face that she's held back for years

Welcome to a teenage mind, it's mad as hell in here
The thinking part just crashed. Its ending is quite near!
Unable to control the thoughts that rattle on inside,
The brain cells all go overboard, they clearly have been fried

Welcome to a teenage mind, there's nothing to be seen
All thoughts have been massacred, the brain has been wiped clean
