Forget what you learned in the night The youth do not have it right The wine plays tricks on young mortals In the late moonlight When reason was lost And caveman instincts run wild And I think I want to rest awhile But the youth will not rest And the youth will scream you awake And the youth will give you drugs And the youth will fill you with worth And the youth will leave you be Only when the youth has burned you up My body is on fire And the youth dance in my light The youth came last night Like all nights, and they begged to dance in my light I begged to dance in their light
