Lyrics

Teenage Superstar

I'm a teenage Jesus superstar without a mighty cross to bear

And when mom complains about my hair

I say hey mom I just don't care

I'm in hell and the angels cry cause I'm trying to sell my soul

And when mom complains about my clothes

I say hey mom leave me alone

Come on little girl, it's gonna be alright

Come on little girl, it's gonna be alright

I got one thing on my mind girl

I got one thing on my mind and I don't care

I'm a teenage Jesus superstar
