At 17 (Prom Night Remix) - Sitti[00:00:00]
I learned the truth at seventeen[00:01:10]
That love was meant for beauty queens[00:01:14]
And high school girls with clear skinned smiles[00:01:17]
Who married young and then retired[00:01:21]
The valentines I never knew[00:01:24]
The Friday nights charades of youth[00:01:28]
Were spent on once more beautiful[00:01:31]
At seventeen I learned the truth[00:01:35]
A brown eyed girl in hand me downs[00:01:52]
Whose name I never could pronounce[00:01:56]
Said pity please the ones who serve[00:01:59]
They only get what they deserve[00:02:03]
The rich relationed home town queen[00:02:06]
Marries into what she needs[00:02:10]
A guarantee of company and haven for the elderly[00:02:13]
We all play the game and when we dare[00:02:35]
To cheat ourselves at solitaire[00:02:38]
Inventing lovers on the phone[00:02:41]
Repenting other lives unknown[00:02:45]
That call and say come dance with me[00:02:48]
And murmur vague obscenities[00:02:52]
At ugly girls like me[00:02:55]
At seventeen[00:02:58]
To those of us who know the pain[00:03:02]
Of valentines that never came[00:03:06]
And those whose name were never called[00:03:09]
When choosing side at basketball[00:03:13]
It was long ago and far away[00:03:16]
The world was younger than today[00:03:20]
And dreams were all they gave for free[00:03:23]
To ugly duckling girls like me[00:03:27]
