He's eighteen and he wants to die
He wants some glory but the price is high
He sees the way out and wants to touch the sky
A star for today and a corpse for tomorrow
The media love him just for a day
That's all he needs to pave his way
His hours of glory should have been made to last
but it all ended in just one blast

I ain't ever been nothin'
I ain't ever 'ad nothin'
I ain't ever been nothin'
I ain't ever 'ad nothin'
going up in a puff of smoke
going up in a puff of smoke
I'm gonna go up in a puff of smoke
I wanna go up in a puff of smoke

I can see him villian, a noose around his neck
making his grand finale, his farewell to us all
why didn't he see a future?
why no bridges left to cross?
is all that existed in his mind
to be a star for just one day?
to reach the point of no return
after stardom for just one day
no turning back no after thoughts
just a bullet in his chest

I ain't ever been nothin'
I ain't ever 'ad nothin'
I ain't ever been nothin'
I ain't ever 'ad nothin'
going up in a puff of smoke
going up in a puff of smoke
I'm gonna go up in a puff of smoke
I wanna go up in a puff of smoke

(going up in a puff of smoke
going up in a puff of smoke
I'm gonna go up in a puff of smoke
I wanna go up in a puff of smoke <i>[repeat 2x]</i>)

If I'm goin' out I'm takin' some of you fucks with me!
