Sweet Sixteen - Judy Garland (朱迪·加兰)[00:00:00]

For fifteen years I've played a waiting game[00:00:09]

I've suffered like they do in russian plays[00:00:14]

But if what's in store is really what they claim[00:00:20]

I must admit that suffering really pays[00:00:25]

For fifteen years I've been just like a prisoner in a cell[00:00:31]

For fifteen years my life has been just awful[00:00:36]

From one to four was such a bore[00:00:43]

I remember how I hated having all those people paw all over me[00:00:46]

And talk baby talk they'd say goo-goo isn't she cunning[00:00:49]

Poor dear she has her father's nose ah-tic-a-tic-a-tic-a-tic-a-tic-a[00:00:54]

The years from five to eight I hate[00:00:58]

I've grown into a very unattractive child and consequently[00:01:00]

Was utterly and completely ignored[00:01:03]

But I didn't really mind I had a book of mother goose and mother goose[00:01:06]

Is pretty hot stuff when you're five years old[00:01:11]

At nine I had the measles so that didn't count[00:01:14]

At ten I'd reached the performing stage[00:01:18]

And at the drop of a hat mother would call me in[00:01:22]

And have me sing the rosary for her guests[00:01:24]

I never will forget how papa used to squirm when I hit that high note[00:01:27]

From eleven to thirteen[00:01:31]

I'd rather not speak of[00:01:32]

It was bad enough having jimmy doogan pull my hair in school[00:01:34]

But it was positively humiliating to have my own mother[00:01:37]

Refer to me as her dear little ugly duckling[00:01:40]

At fourteen I had my first taste of romance[00:01:44]

It was at a party at dancing school and[00:01:49]

He was younger than I was shorter than I was[00:01:53]

Oh but he had a wonderful name archibold[00:01:59]

And he really like me too he really did[00:02:03]

But I had to go and spoil it all I asked him right out[00:02:06]

IIf he'd be my best beau[00:02:10]

That was the last I ever saw of him[00:02:12]

By now I was fifteen and pretty miserable[00:02:16]

Mother refused to let me wear any lipstick or rouge[00:02:19]

And I went around looking as pale as death[00:02:22]

It was then that I decided to join the monastary[00:02:26]

And I would have too if it hadn't been for bing crosby[00:02:28]

I was afraid they wouldn't have any radios in monastaries[00:02:34]

So I devoted my fifteenth year to kraft cheese[00:02:37]

But now it's a different story I can brush away the tears[00:02:43]

And lau-augh at those awful fifteen years for now I'm[00:02:48]

Sweet sixteen and I've got my first long dress[00:02:58]

I can even have a date one night a week[00:03:06]

I can paint my lips a little and rouge my cheeks[00:03:12]

I'm sweet sixteen but I really must confess[00:03:17]

Although this grown up life isn't simple[00:03:25]

I wouldn't change places with shirley temple[00:03:31]

Gee it's great to be just as free as the birds above me[00:03:36]

I'm a juliet out to get a romeo to love me[00:03:45]

I ask you please forget that I was an in-between[00:03:53]

I mean my flags unfurled I'm a woman of the world[00:04:01]

I'm sweet sixteen[00:04:08]
