Sweet Sixteen - So What! (朱迪·嘉兰)[00:00:00]

Written by：Roger Edens/Joe Josea[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[00:00:37]

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

I remember how I hated having all those people paw all over me[00:00:47]

And talk baby talk[00:00:49]

They'd say goo goo isn't she cunning poor dear[00:00:51]

She has her father's nose[00:00:54]

Ah tic a tic a tic a tic a tic a the years[00:00:55]

From five to eight I hate I've grown into a[00:00:58]

Very unattractive child and consequently was utterly[00:01:01]

And completely ignored but[00:01:04]

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

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 at ten[00:01:14]

I'd reached the performing[00:01:19]

Stage and at the drop of a hat mother would call me in[00:01:21]

And have me sing the[00:01:24]

Rosary for her guests I never will forget how papa used to squirm[00:01:25]

When I hit[00:01:28]

That high note[00:01:29]

From eleven to thirteen I'd rather not speak of it was bad enough having[00:01:31]

Jimmy doogan pull my hair in school but it was positively humiliating to have[00:01:35]

My own mother refer to me as her dear little ugly duckling[00:01:39]

At fourteen I had my first taste of romance it was at a party[00:01:44]

At dancing school[00:01:50]

And he was younger than I was shorter than I was oh[00:01:52]

But he had a wonderful[00:01:59]

Name archibold and he really like me too he really did but[00:02:01]

I had to go and[00:02:06]

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

That was the last I ever[00:02:13]

Saw of him[00:02:14]

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

Let me wear any lipstick[00:02:20]

Or rouge and I went around looking as pale as death[00:02:21]

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

Monastary and I would have too if it hadn't been for bing crosby[00:02:27]

I was afraid they wouldn't[00:02:34]

Have any radios in manastaries so I devoted my fifteenth year to kraft cheese[00:02:35]

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[00:02:49]

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[00:03:46]

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

I mean I'm a woman of the world[00:04:02]

I'm sweet sixteen[00:04:07]
