Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They're out in the streets they turn on the heat
And soon they could be completely in command.
Imagine the sensation
Of teenage occupation
At thirteen they'll be learning
But there's something in the air
Of which we all will be aware.
But they don't care
No
No

So come join the revolution
Get yourself a constitution
Come join the revolution now
And recognize your age it's a teenage rampage
Turn another page on the teenage rampage now.
So recognize your age it's a teenage rampage
Turn another page on the teenage rampage
Now now now now now now now now . . .
They're getting it on ain't doing it wrong and they're gonna do it
It won't be long.
They gotta be heard
They get the word

And now they're coming on strong.
Imagine the formation
Of teenage legislation
At thirteen they were fooling
But at sixteen they'll be rulin'
And there's something in the air
Of which we all will be aware.
But they don't care

There's something in the air
Of which we all will be aware yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
So come join the revolution
Get yourself a constitution...
The lyrics of Brian Connolly's & Sweet's song Teenage Rampage portray a youth rebellion that is starting to take shape all over the land. The kids are out in the streets, getting the upper hand, and turning up the heat on a society that has pushed them aside. The sensation of teenage occupation is palpable, and there's something in the air that we will all be aware of. The coming of age is symbolized by the teenage rampage, which marks a turning point in the lives of the young protagonists. At thirteen, they may be learning, but at fourteen, they'll be burning, and by the time they're sixteen, they'll be ruling.
The lyrics suggest that the teenagers are in the process of organizing themselves into a formidable force that may soon be completely in command. The teenage revolution is gathering momentum, and they're calling on their peers to join them and recognize their age. The song paints a picture of a generation that is rejecting the old ways and carving out its own destiny. The 60s and 70s were an era of social upheaval, and Teenage Rampage captures the spirit of that time perfectly.
Overall, the song is an exhortation to the youth of the land to rise up and take control of their own destiny. The lyrics are a manifesto for youth empowerment that speaks to teenagers even today.
