Lyrics

English: ...Drive by, they teach you how to live for nothing / I'm the new Vietnam / Tell you what I am / We need a friend / And I need a pick me up / The least you could do is fix me up / I need you under my skin baby / I promise not to love another... / I'm the new Vietnam / Tell you what I am
