Lyrics

Cherry Bomb

[Verse 1]

Can't stay at home, can't stay at school

Old folks say, "You poor little fool"

Down the street I'm the girl next door

I'm the fox you've been waiting for

[Chorus]

Hello Daddy, hello Mom

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

Hello world, I'm your wild girl

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

[Verse 2]

Stone age love and strange sounds too

Come on, baby, let me get to you

Bad nights causin' teenage blues

Get down, ladies, you've got nothing to lose

[Chorus]

Hello Daddy, hello Mom

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

Hello world, I'm your wild girl

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Hello Daddy, hello Mom

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

Hello world, I'm your wild girl

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

[Verse 3]

Hey, straight girl, what's your style?

Your daddy's dreams don't make you smile

I'll give you something to live for

Have you, grab you 'til you're sore

[Chorus]

Hello Daddy, hello Mom

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

Hello world, I'm your wild girl

I'm your ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb

[Outro]

Cherry bomb, cherry bomb

Cherry bomb
