[Verse 1]
I've had these jeans since I was born
And now they're ripped and now they're torn
And all my friends have skateboards

[Verse 2]
I want the toys of other boys
I want a knife and a gun and things
But mum and dad will not give in

[Chorus]
And I can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
I can't put the needle in
No, I can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in

[Verse 3]
And now I know just what it is
It's called disease and it's got my head
It always runs where I hide

[Verse 4]
Too scared to talk, too scared to try
Too scared to know the reasons why
And all my friends say bye-bye
[Chorus]
And I can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
No, I can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
And I can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
No, I can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in
Can't put the needle in

[Instrumental Outro]
