Peroxyde, when it wasn't hair dye
I have blond streaks in my hair and a mean streak
When it wasn't orange by Crazy Color
But it changed almost once every two weeks
Tailored tartan jacket and a loudmouth
Was all I brought to school when I forgot the books
You can blame it on me, or ADHD
But it doesn't explain the name-calling and the looks
I can't believe I am the same person
I was at sixteen
With Johnny Rotten hair
And a mean streak
And I can't believe out all of the things that would destroy me
It was you who made me weak
I tried my best to forget about you, sure
The next year I went and dyed my hair blue
Today I sing my songs and I have my own band
I don't fool myself this is how I'd be accepted by you
You tore me apart 'cause you didn't get
How could I not fear being weird
But you were the trickiest monster I'd ever met
I can't believe I am the same person
I was at sixteen
With Johnny Rotten hair
And a mean streak
And I can't believe out all of the things that would destroy me
It was you who made me weak
Many of my first songs were about you, this song is about you
But I'll never say thank you, I'll only say
Many of my first songs were about you, this song is about you
But I'll never say thank you, I'll only say f*ck you
I can't believe I am the same person
I was at sixteen
With Johnny Rotten hair
And a mean streak
And I can't believe out all of the things that would destroy me
It was you who made me weak
