Teenage Dirtbag Lyrics
[Verse 1: Cavetown]
Her name is Noelle
I have a dream about her
She rings my bell
Got gym class in half an hour
Oh, how she rocks
In Keds and tube socks
[Pre-Chorus: Cavetown]
But she doesn't know who I am
And she doesn't give a damn about me
[Chorus: Cavetown]
'Cause I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
Listen to Iron Maiden, baby, with me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2: Cavetown & chloe moriondo]
Her boyfriend's a dick
He brings a gun to school
And he'd simply kick
My ass, if he knew the truth
He lives on my block
And he drives an IROC
Her name is Noelle
I have a dream about her
She rings my bell
Got gym class in half an hour
Oh, how she rocks
In Keds and tube socks
[Pre-Chorus: Cavetown]
But she doesn't know who I am
And she doesn't give a damn about me
[Chorus: Cavetown]
'Cause I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
Listen to Iron Maiden, baby, with me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2: Cavetown & chloe moriondo]
Her boyfriend's a dick
He brings a gun to school
And he'd simply kick
My ass, if he knew the truth
He lives on my block
And he drives an IROC
[Pre-Chorus: Cavetown & chloe moriondo]
But he doesn't know who I am
And he doesn't give a damn about me
[Chorus: Cavetown & chloe moriondo, Cavetown]
'Cause I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
Listen to Iron Maiden, baby, with me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Oh, yeah
[Post-Chorus: chloe moriondo, Cavetown & chloe moriondo]
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
[Bridge: chloe moriondo]
Now I feel like mold
It's prom night and I am lonely
Lo and behold
She's walking over to me
This must be fake
My lip starts to shake
How does she know who I am?
And why does she give a damn about—?
But he doesn't know who I am
And he doesn't give a damn about me
[Chorus: Cavetown & chloe moriondo, Cavetown]
'Cause I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby
Listen to Iron Maiden, baby, with me
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Oh, yeah
[Post-Chorus: chloe moriondo, Cavetown & chloe moriondo]
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
[Bridge: chloe moriondo]
Now I feel like mold
It's prom night and I am lonely
Lo and behold
She's walking over to me
This must be fake
My lip starts to shake
How does she know who I am?
And why does she give a damn about—?
[Chorus: Cavetown & chloe moriondo, Cavetown]
I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden, baby
Come with me Friday, don't say, "Maybe"
I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby, like you
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Oh, yeah
[Post-Chorus: chloe moriondo, Cavetown, Both]
(She doesn't know)
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag (She doesn't know, she doesn't know)
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
(She doesn't know)
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag (She doesn't know, she doesn't know)
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
(She doesn't know)
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag (She doesn't know, she doesn't know)
She doesn't know what she's missin'
I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden, baby
Come with me Friday, don't say, "Maybe"
I'm just a teenage dirtbag, baby, like you
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Oh, yeah
[Post-Chorus: chloe moriondo, Cavetown, Both]
(She doesn't know)
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag (She doesn't know, she doesn't know)
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
(She doesn't know)
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag (She doesn't know, she doesn't know)
No, she doesn't know what she's missin'
(She doesn't know)
Ooh, yeah, dirtbag (She doesn't know, she doesn't know)
She doesn't know what she's missin'

Genius Answer
[“Teenage Dirtbag”] was just a song I had stuck in my head for the longest time, and it had been a little while since I had worked with Chloe on a song. They are so fun to work with, and I miss them, so I texted them to see if they would be down to sing with me on the cover, and of course, they said yes.
