Teenage Cremation - by Bob Hudson (1975)

Bah bah bah oh oh doo bee doo(4x)
Oh we rode our motorcycle
We were trying to do the ton
The shades of night were falling
We could see the setting sun
You put out your left hand
When you meant to turn right
Oh baby, oh baby, why couldn't you get it right
Well, teenage cremation, oh how I cried when you died

Bah bah bah oh oh doo bee doo(4x)
We went a hundred miles an hour
We ran into a truck
The driver he just looked at us
And all he said was look out
I'm so broken hearted, I'm all alone and blue
I wander along the nature-strip looking for pieces of you
Teenage cremation, oh how I cried when you died

Bah bah bah oh oh doo bee doo(4x)
Down at the crematorium
We said our last good bye
I stood by the furnace
And I sadly watched you fry
I'm here so sad and lonely
By the big asbestos door
Because I couldn't find the piece of you
That I was looking for
Well, teenage cremation, oh how I cried when you cried

When you fried, teenage cremation.

Teenage Cremation - by Dean Middaugh (1960s)

Oh we rode upon my motorbike
All down ?
Evening had fallen
The day was barely done
When you put out your left hand
To turn to the right
Why oh why my baby didn't you hold me tight
Teenage cremation, oh how I cried when you fried

Ninety miles an hour
We crashed into a lorry
The driver he got out
He said I'm awfully sorry
From ? to Brimford and Londontown too
I searched along the side of the road picking up pieces of you
Teenage cremation, oh how I cried when you fried

? crematorium
Where we said good bye
I stood by the furnace
?
But now I'm so lonesome
Just standing by the door
Because I couldn't find the piece of you
That I was looking for
Well, teenage cremation, oh how I cried when you fried
When you fried, why why why.

Have some lines missing in the second one could not remember what they are sorry but as far as i know the top (1st) one is the most accurate.
