1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
Spots  on my face too  much acne to embrace
 the person  behind them
zits  on my back  with heads  bright white, scarlet and black
 in much  too much an awkward  place to pop  them
pimples  on my chest probably  there because I'm stressed
about  the people talking  behind my  back
 about the spots  on my face  the ones  i wish i could erase
 just like  the so called friends  that like to tease  me about them
clearasil  and freederm sitting  in my bathroom
 the spots  on my face  can confirm that  they don't really  work
proactiv solution deserves  an execution
 for being  an ablution  that  does nothing but  smirk at me
 'cause I'm an acne  ridden teen
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
 countless times I've tried and tried but my skin just ends up all dry
 and I'm left wanting to say inside
 but then one day I said charlie it's not as bad as it could be
 they're only spots it's not like you've died
 be a man, be who you are but try not to pop them in case they scar
 even though squeezing them is fun
 understand at the end of the day to put your hands down and say okay
 get out of the bathroom,
 and lie out in the sun (because I heard that helps)
 clearasil and freederm sitting in my bathroom
 the spots on my face can confirm that they don't really work
 proactiv solution deserves an execution
 for being an ablution that does nothing but smirk at me
 'cause I'm an acne ridden teen
 but I won't  let that define me
 because the people  that mind don't matter
 and the people  that matter don't  mind
 so when  all that puss goes splatter
wipe  it off your mirror, and  wipe it from your mind
you  could try and dairy  free diet
 and drink  8 cups of water  a day
 but in  the end your  acne will still  run riot
 'cause the  hormones that  cause them, just  won't go away
 Intro Chords x2
 clearasil and freederm sitting in my bathroom
 the spots on my face can confirm that they don't really work
 proactiv solution deserves an execution
 for being an ablution that does nothing but smirk at me
 'cause I'm an acne ridden
somewhat  smelly
 Kind of weird
 But generally  A ok teen

countless times I've tried and tried but my skin just ends up all dry

and I'm left wanting to say inside

but then one day I said charlie it's not as bad as it could be

they're only spots it's not like you've died

be a man, be who you are but try not to pop them in case they scar

even though squeezing them is fun

understand at the end of the day to put your hands down and say okay

get out of the bathroom,

and lie out in the sun (because I heard that helps)

clearasil and freederm sitting in my bathroom

the spots on my face can confirm that they don't really work

proactiv solution deserves an execution

for being an ablution that does nothing but smirk at me
