David Wilcox addresses those turbulent teenage years in his song "Saturday They'll All Be Back Again."

Johnny's out cruising down the fast food strip,he rides the high-wheeler Ford. He's down here every evening since the school let out, an ordinary man would be bored.

Johnny's got the hunger of a high school heart, and a tank full of minimum wage. So it's six lights down, six lights back, pacing like a lion in a cage.

He's running on a tether, tearing at the ground trying to find a way to break the chain, This howling in the distance it's a captivating sound Can't tell if it's ecstasy or pain, Saturday they'll all be back again.

Its lonely, like hunger driven to the same old place. Rumble like thunder, don't you think that Angels hear the passion of this Human Race.
