“teen city” from the modernettes’ 1980 ep of the same name. the song’s about
vancouver 🙂 to my knowledge there are no other tabs of this (or any other
modernettes songs) on the net. you can find it on itunes — or here’s the youtube

E let ring
E B Ab A four times with variations
everyone is wasting time
got no time to lose
teen city is the only place for you
ten thousand teens can’t be wrong
ten thousand teens where i belong
nothing to do in this fucking town
just drink and drink and then fall down
the girls are ugly and it always rains
no matter what happens the kids are to blame
soon i’m gonna be
E Eb C#m (rest)
with a million just like me
teen city is the only place for me
ten thousand teens can’t be wrong
ten thousand teens where I belong
teen city is jumping tonight
with modern kids dressed just right
some go fast and some go slow
all I know is I gotta go
there’s a million just like me
E Eb C#m (rest) (scratch)
and I know where they’ll be
teen city here I come
ten thousand teens can’t be wrong
ten thousand teens where I belong
(break) 32 bars of E Ab A B with solo over top
teen city is the place to go
the records are loud and no one plays slow
teen city’s where I wanna be
lots of kids dressed like me
teen city’s where I wanna be
lots of fun and it’s all free
teen city’s where I wanna go
the records are loud and there’s no disco
teen city is jumping tonight
with modern kids dressed just right
some go fast and some go slow
all I know is I gotta go
there’s a million just like me
E Eb C#m (rest) (scratch)
and I know where they’ll be (“where?”)
teen city USA
ten thousand teens can’t be wrong
ten thousand teens can’t be wrong
ten thousand teens where I belong
ten thousand teens where I belong
ten thousand teens can’t be wrong
ten thousand!
E
