I agree with Suzi. The original (music only, no lyrics) copy of the song is on the "Lifehouse Elements" album by Pete Townshend.Years later they put words to it in regards to society social patterns.
Check it out, it is a great album.

Teenage Wasteland is a song written by Pete Townshend in 1971 for his LifeHouse project. The life house project refers to the building of homes for the poor comunity. Since the project wasn't completed back then, Townshend used parts of this song in his work with The Who, and parts of 'Teenage Wasteland' eventually became another song, Baba O'Reilly.

The song is The Who's 'Baba O' Riley'
{named for Meher Baba and Terry Riley}
The lyric in the middle is "Don't cry, don't raise your eye, it's only teenage wasteland".
Teenage Wasteland was the title of a planned song by Pete Townshend, which was slower and had more lyrics.

do you mean who sang that? Well The Who has the song Teenage Wasteland and I think the phrase got popular then.

The song's real title is "Baba O'Riley" but it is sung nowhere in the lyrics.
