At Seventeen(Album Version)

At seventeen[00:00:01]

I learned the truth at seventeen[00:00:10]

That love was meant for beauty queens[00:00:14]

And high school girls with clear siknned smiles[00:00:19]

Who married young and then retired[00:00:23]

The valentines i never knew[00:00:29]

The friday night charades of youth[00:00:33]

Were spent on one more beautiful[00:00:37]

At seventeen i learned the truth[00:00:41]

And those of us with ravaged faces[00:00:47]

Lacking in the social graces[00:00:51]

Desperately remained at home[00:00:55]

Inventing lovers on the phone[00:00:59]

Who called to say come dance with me"[00:01:02]

And murmured vague obscenities[00:01:07]

It isn't all it seems at seventeen[00:01:12]

A brown-eyed girl in hand me downs[00:01:19]

Whose name i never could pronounce[00:01:23]

Said"pity please the ones who serve [00:01:27]

They only get what they deserve"[00:01:31]

And the rich relationed home town queen[00:01:37]

Marries into what she needs[00:01:41]

With a guarantee of company and haven for the elderly[00:01:46]

Remember those who with the game[00:01:56]

Lose the love they sought to gain[00:02:00]

In debentures of quality and dubious integrity[00:02:03]

The small town eyes would gape at you in dull surprise[00:02:11]

When payment due exceeds accounts received at seventeen[00:02:17]

To those of us who knew the pain[00:03:20]

Of valentines that never came[00:03:25]

And those whose names were never called[00:03:28]

When choosing sides for basketball[00:03:33]

It was long ago and far away[00:03:39]

The world was younger than today[00:03:43]

And dreams were all they gave for free[00:03:48]

To ugly duckling girls like me[00:03:52]

We all played the game and when we dared[00:03:57]

To cheat ourselves at solitaire[00:04:01]

Inverting lovers on the phone[00:04:05]

Repenting other lives unknown[00:04:09]

They call and say "come dance with me"[00:04:13]

And murmur vague obscenities[00:04:18]

At ugly girls like me--at seventeen[00:04:22]
