The days of wine and roses
Were a long time ago
The proms, teenage cruisin'
And the picture show
You tried so hard
To fix your outsides
Until you realized that I took
Everything dear inside
Chorus
Give me your heart
Give me your soul
I'll take you when you're young
The devil in Miss Jones
Your daddy had a funny way
Of showing you his love
It's a shame you've hid well
From the Lord up above
There's something inside
That burns like a fire
And you realize you've been blessed
With a wild desire
Repeat Chorus
Your parochial background
Vanished in the wind
Perhaps a pornographic future
And a million dollar friend
You tried so hard to always be the one
You're loved by all men, but respected by none
Repeat Chorus
I'll take you when you're young
And I'll leave you when you're old
Mike Ness è un musicista statunitense nato Michael James Ness, noto per essere il frontman e principale songwriter della band punk rock Social Distortion. Fondata nel 1979 a Fullerton, in California, la band ha raggiunto una grande popolarità negli anni '80 e '90 con un sound caratterizzato da melodie accattivanti, testi introspettivi e influenze country e rockabilly. Ness è considerato uno dei pionieri del punk rock californiano e il suo stile vocale rauco e appassionato ha contribuito a definire l'estetica della scena musicale di quel periodo. Oltre alla sua attività con i Social Distortion, Ness ha collaborato con altri artisti come Johnny Cash e The Blasters. Tra le canzoni più rappresentative dei Social Distortion figurano "Ball and Chain", "Story of My Life" e "Mommy's Little Monster". L'album "White Light, White Heat, White Trash" (1988) è considerato un classico del genere punk rock.
