Teenage Life Lyrics – Das Sampson
Topic: Entertainment (Apr 11, 2006)
“Teenage Life†is the song that will represent United Kingdom at Eurovision Song Contest 2006
‘Teenage Life‘ lyrics, song performed by Das Sampson
Now hear this
What did you learn at school today ?
That’s what the teachers used to say
But they don’t know
Don’t understand, do they ?
Why do they always give advice ?
Saying “Just be nice, always think twice”
When it’s been a long since they had a teenage life
What did you learn at school today ?
That’s what the teachers used to say
But they don’t know
Don’t understand, do they ?
Why do they always give advice
Saying “Just be nice, always think twice”
When it’s been a long time since they had a teenage life
Dwelling on the past, from back when I was young
Thinking of my school days and trying to write this song
Classroom schemes and dreams
Man they couldn’t save me
Cos my days were numbered when I signed down on “Avyâ€
Teenage kicks running out what could we do
I still show respect to my boys who made it through
And getting told off Mr T how my life would be
Then giving him a signal
So everyone could see
Sunshine and shade
Those girls I’d serenade
Thinking of those sixth form chicks that misbehave
Hoping that those days would go on and on forever
Every day something new
Just friends running together
But suddenly school ends
Your teenage life gone
All your mates are growing up now
They’re moving on
And now I’m looking back
I’ll tell you what I know
Do you listen to your teacher ?
No I don’t think so
“What did you learn at school today?”
That’s what the teachers used to say
But they don’t know
Don’t understand, do they ?
Why do they always give advice
Saying “Just be nice, always think twice”
When it’s been a long time since they had a teenage life
Now if you treat the kids fine, together they will shine
Ooh ooh ooh shine
And if you give the kids time, they won’t do the crime
Won’t do the crime
Now my bad old ways
Were during my school days
Messing on those grade A’s
My life is just a haze
I’m going through the struggle
Five ten and kicking back
So I could lock my flow
Lace it up now on the track
Oh yeh I felt the pain
Whilst chasing all the fame
I’m being told I’m nothing
Just a player in the game
But now I walk tall
Stand proud for you to see
I’m driving these fast cars
It’s five stars for me
“What did you learn at school today?”
That’s what the teachers used to say
But they don’t know
Don’t understand, do they?
Why do they always give advice
Saying “Just be nice, always think twice”
When it’s been a long since they had a teenage life
“Teenage Lifeâ€

Comment by *MeGgIe* — June 2, 2006 @ 1:48 pm
Alright. I see that here is going on some weird thing.. “Let’s push Finland down! Finland sucks!” No no. I wanna say something to some persons.. Even if they don’t read this. This is for everyone.
lilbabaytash: “finland wer CRAP!!!” No. Every song was good, but Finland just beat them all.
Think twice what you say! 
Nulle: “Daz should’ve won instead of those freaks from Finland!” I don’t agree. Lordi was good, no, it was the best. You, the bitter one, they aren’t freaks, they are monsters. ;D
Alice: “Finland shouldn’t have won because my mummy said uk were going to win” Well Alice, your mummy was wrong, so wrong.
nicky_f: “Don’t worry that u haven’t won that competition!” Yeah, anyway Finland deserved it.
Antonia: “…never to watch Eurovison again, Finland sucks..” Bad attitude. You are going to miss so much if you don’t watch Eurovisions.. And everyone should watch Eurovisions when they are in Finland. That’s gonna be the best Eurovision ever.
Don’t miss that!
Jade: “dont listen to them finland Bas*ard they just won cause the public there poofters aswell GAHH !!” Here one bitter too.
Just accept that your country LOST. That’s it. ;D
And I would like to say something to everyone who have wrote here something:
Don’t be so bitter! That really sucks. Respect those who won, they have really done a lot of work!
And now I can say my opinion of “Teenage life”: Good song, lyrics are fine and Daz “the rapper”, nice voice! ;D
Thanks.
- Eitz from Finland.

“What did you learn at school today?”
That’s what the teachers used to say
But they don’t know
Don’t understand, do they?
Why do they always give advice
Saying “Just be nice, always think twice”
When it’s been a long since they had a teenage life
STILL SING IT NOW
