It's great to be young 
It's great to be young 
 
Didn't anyone tell you 
That life was a lousy substitute? 
You're not packing with angels now 
In your undertaker's suit 
 
It's funky down in the gutter 
That's what all the bitches say 
I'll just call it a celebration 
If the Devil walks my way 
 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
 
Welcome into the garden, Sarah 
Come see how my roses die 
We were looking for Heaven 
Couldn't bear to pass you by 
 
There are stories of bad luck, yeah 
But they come to bless us all 
If it's true that you doubt it 
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall 
 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
 
It's great to be young 
It's great to be young 
It's great to be young 
 
I was talking to sweet thing 
She said, "Hang your horses high" 
There are jokers and tokers 
Here's some pills and you ought to try 
 
Some say, "It's a vacation" 
Some say, "I will never die" 
God, won't stop at my station 
Hear all the mothers cry 
 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
 
You keep saying, "Kick it, quit it" 
Lord, but did You ever try 
To turn Your sick soul inside out 
So that the world can watch You die 
 
Home is where I live inside 
My home is filled with pain 
And it might not be such a bad idea 
If I never went home again 
 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
 
There are stories of bad luck, yeah 
But they come to bless us all 
If it's true that you doubt it 
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall 
 
You, you are my heroin 
You, you are my heroin 
You know that it's true 
 
It's great to be young
