Dustbox - Born To Be Happy

A quick cowpunk burner about life in a “Troubled Teen Camp” in the Ozarks. Long hikes, bad food, forced scripture, and no girls — just misery dressed up as salvation. Our narrator learns to play along, nodding his head until he gets out. One year later, he turns 18 and never speaks to his parents again. A fast, raw story-song about faith, control, and rebellion.

LYRICS
(C)2025 Ggreg Snyder

[Verse 1]
They shipped me off to the Ozark hills,
Said I needed Jesus more than thrills.
Made me hike ten miles with a broken boot,
Read me scripture ‘til my brain turned mute.
Said my urges were sinful, fire and brim,
This place is looking incredibly grim.

[Chorus]
Troubled Teen Camp, three months long,
No girls, no fun, just a Bible song.
Troubled Teen Camp, can’t you see?
It damn near broke the best of me.

[Verse 2]
The food was cold, beans out of a can,
Said it’d make me into a better man.
Hike all day ‘til your feet turn red,
Sleep on the ground with rocks for a bed.
Some of the guys, man, I swear they cried,
Looked in their eyes — their hearts had died.

[Chorus]
Troubled Teen Camp, three months long,
No girls, no fun, just a Bible song.
Troubled Teen Camp, misery,
You don’t get saved, you just learn to agree.

[Bridge]
I ain’t religious, but I learned the trick,
Nod my head, say “Amen” quick.
Play along ‘til the gates swing wide,
Countin’ down the days ‘til I get outside.

[Verse 3]
I got out, turned eighteen,
Never looked back on what I’d seen.
Parents wrote, but I never replied,
Some bridges burn and they stay fried.
Ozark hills still haunt my dreams,
Of scripture screams and broken teens.

[Final Chorus]
Troubled Teen Camp, three months long,
No love, no hope, just a Bible song.
Troubled Teen Camp, can’t you see?
That place ain’t ever gettin’ me.

[Outro Shout]
Troubled Teen Camp! Troubled Teen Camp!
Run like hell — don’t look back!
