At Seventeen (Live) (《荒唐阿姨大电影》电影插曲) - Julia Sawalha[00:00:00]

Written by：Janis Ian[00:00:02]

I learned the truth at seventeen[00:00:07]

That love was meant for beauty queens[00:00:11]

And high school girls with clear skinned smiles[00:00:15]

Who married young and then retired[00:00:19]

The valentines I never knew[00:00:26]

The friday night charades of youth[00:00:30]

Were spent on one more beautiful[00:00:34]

At seventeen I learned[00:00:38]

The truth[00:00:41]

And those of us with ravaged faces[00:00:45]

Lacking in the social graces[00:00:50]

Desperately remained at home[00:00:53]

Inventing lovers on the phone[00:00:57]

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

And murmured vague obscenities[00:01:05]

It isn't all it seems[00:01:09]

At seventeen[00:01:12]

Those of us who knew the pain[00:01:16]

Of valentines that never came[00:01:19]

And those whose names were never called[00:01:24]

When choosing sides for basketball[00:01:27]

Was long ago and far away[00:01:35]

The world was younger than today[00:01:38]

When dreams were all they gave for free[00:01:43]

To ugly duckling girls like me[00:01:47]

We all play the game and when we dare[00:01:53]

We cheat ourselves at solitaire[00:01:57]

Inventing lovers on the phone[00:02:02]

Repenting other lives unknown[00:02:05]

That call and say come on dance with me[00:02:09]

Murmur vague obscenities[00:02:14]

At ugly girls like me[00:02:18]

At seventeen[00:02:21]
