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[00:00:46]

Paw all over me and talk baby talk[00:00:49]

They'd say goo-goo isn't she cunning [00:00:50]

Poor dear she has her father's nose [00:00:53]

Ah-tic-a-tic-a-tic-a-tic-a-tic-a [00:00:55]

The years from five to eight I hate [00:00:57]

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

And consequently was utterly and completely ignored [00:01:02]

But I didn't really mind [00:01:06]

I had a book of Mother Goose[00:01:08]

And Mother Goose is pretty[00:01:10]

Hot stuff when you're five years old [00:01:11]

At nine I had the measles so that didn't count [00:01:13]

At ten I'd reached the performing stage[00:01:17]

And at the drop of a hat mother would[00:01:21]

Call me in and have me sing[00:01:23]

The Rosary for her guests [00:01:24]

I never will forget how papa used to squirm[00:01:26]

When I hit that high note [00:01:28]

From eleven to thirteen I'd rather not speak of [00:01:30]

It was bad enough having Jimmy Doogan[00:01:33]

Pull my hair in school[00:01:35]

But it was positively humiliating to have my own mother[00:01:36]

Refer to me as her dear little ugly duckling[00:01:39]

At fourteen I had my first taste of romance [00:01:43]

It was at a party at dancing school[00:01:48]

And he was younger than I was shorter than I was [00:01:51]

Oh but he had a wonderful name - Archibold [00:01:58]

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

Really he did but I had to go and spoil it all [00:02:03]

I asked him right out if he'd be my best beau [00:02:07]

That was the last I ever saw of him [00:02:10]

By now I was fifteen and pretty miserable [00:02:14]

Mother refused to let me wear any lipstick[00:02:18]

Or rouge and I went around looking as pale as death [00:02:19]

It was then that I decided to join the monastary [00:02:25]

And I would have too if it hadn't been for Bing Crosby [00:02:27]

I was afraid they wouldn't have any radios in manastaries [00:02:33]

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[00:02:41]

And lau-augh at those awful fifteen years[00:02:47]

For now I'm [00:02:52]

Sweet Sixteen and I've got my first long dress[00:02:56]

I can even have a date one night a week[00:03:04]

I can paint my lips a little and rouge my cheeks[00:03:10]

I'm sweet sixteen but I really must confess[00:03:15]

Although this grown up life isn't simple[00:03:23]

I wouldn't change places with Shirley Temple[00:03:29]

Gee it's great to be just as free as the birds - above me[00:03:34]

I'm a Juliet out to get a Romeo to love me[00:03:43]

I ask you please forget that I was an in-between[00:03:51]

I mean my flags unfurled I'm a woman of the world[00:03:59]

I'm sweet sixteen[00:04:06]
