Die young stay pretty

Deteriorate in your own time

Tell 'em you're dead and wither away

Are ya living alone or with your family?

a dried up twig on your family tree?

Are ya waiting for the reaper to arrive?

Or just to die by the hand of love?

Love for youth love for youth

So die young and stay pretty

Leave only the best behind

Slipping sensibilities

Tragedy in your own dream

Oh ya sit all alone in your rocking chair

Transistor pressed against an ear

Were ya waiting at the bus stop all your life?

Or just to die by the hand of love?

Love for youth love for youth

So live fast 'cause it won't last

Dearly near senility

Was it good or maybe you won't tell?
