The Spirit of 2009

I'm a teenager

I'm a teenager

I'm a teenager

Born in nineteen-hundred ninety-five

And I'll see you here later

Can't wait to meet you

If you're still alive

I hope you're ready

'Cause it ain't cute

Get your gun hand steady

Grab your Bible and shoot

It's the spirit of 2009

We're still waiting for the water

To change into wine

There's nothing left 'cause it's all right

We're gonna burn some books tonight

It's the spirit of 2009, 2009

I'm a teenager

I ain't got no teachers

They gave 'em forty acres and a mule

But I got big brother preachers

Now I see things I never saw in school

They put a wig on the eagle

They took the sex off your screen

Thank God the pill's illegal

I'll be a dad at fourteen

It's the spirit of 2009

We're still waiting for the water

To change into wine

It's the spirit of 2009

Forget the left 'cause it's all right

The population is out of sight

It's the spirit of 2009, 2009 (hoo)

I used to play bass in a solid mass band

Smoke jelly and hang out in my pod

But this summer I'm going to astro camp

Learn a trade that gets me closer to God, God

(solo)

I'm a teenager

I'm a teenager

It's the spirit of 2009

We're still waiting for the water

To change into wine

There's nothing left 'cause it's all right

We're gonna burn some books tonight

It's the spirit of 2009

It's the spirit of 2009

The spirit of 2009

The spirit of 2009

The spirit of 2000-eh, hey
