Born Innocent Lyrics by Redd Kross

Redd Kross

2024

[Verse 1] [Jeff McDonald:]
When I was 15
I hated school
Knew what I wanted to do
Bought a fake Stratocaster just 40 bucks used
I wrote a song
Played a show
Quit the only job that I'd ever know
I rejected your old fashion blues and it's dues

[Chorus] [both:]
We are born - born innocent
We all are - born innocent
We are born - born innocent
We all are born innocent
Original innocence

[Verse 2] [Steve McDonald:]
When I was just 10
I joined the school band
So that I could begin
The relentless campaign
For a bass
Knew our parents
Would likely givе in
I thrived
Survived
Hollywood is not the placе for a child
Unless you're in a punk band
You'd succumb to the wild

[Chorus] [both:]
We are born - born innocent
We all are - born innocent
We are born - born innocent
We all are born innocent
Original innocence

[Bridge] [both:]
It was time to defect
That land locked void today
Take the swamp highway
North past Inglewood

[Chorus] [both:]
Oh!
We are born - born innocent
We all are - born innocent
We are born - born innocent
We all are born innocent
We are born - born innocent
We all are - born innocent
We are born - born innocent
We all are born innocent
All born innocent
All born innocent
All born innocent
All born innocent
We are all born innocent
We are all born innocent
We are all born innocent
We are all born innocent
We are all born innocent
