Teenage Idol — Gary Moore

He never did much good when he went to school Too many teachers there were to many rules A dirty face kid he was never outta trouble His mom and papa told him better get out on the double But when he heared that music on the radio He knew one day he was gonna be a teenage idol

He quit his job in the factory He was tired if makin' peanuts so jumped out of the tree He couldn't wait another day to get out of that place He punched the clock and he broke its face But when he heared that music on the radio He knew one day he was gonna be a teenage idol

He's a teenage idol He knows how to rock and roll A teenage idol He's way out of control

He ditched his chick and he sold his car He bought himself a hot guitar He joined a band and they cut some tracks He hit the road and he's never looked back And now they're playing all his records on the radio Ans everyone knows that he's gonna be a teenage idol

He's a teenage idol He knows how to rock and roll A teenage idol He's way out of control

And now they're playing all his records on the radio AnD everyone knows that he's gonna be a teenage idol
