[00:17.141] | I learned the truth at seventeen |
[00:21.504] | That love was meant for beauty queens |
[00:26.098] | And high school girls with clear skinned smiles |
[00:30.135] | Who married young and then retired |
[00:37.605] | The valentines I never knew |
[00:41.813] | The Friday night charades of youth |
[00:46.096] | Were spent on one more beautiful |
[00:50.302] | At seventeen I learned the truth |
[00:57.402] | And those of us with ravaged faces |
[01:02.523] | Lacking in the social graces |
[01:06.637] | Desperately remained at home |
[01:10.655] | Inventing lovers on the phone |
[01:13.889] | Who called to say come dance with me |
[01:18.822] | And murmured vague obscenities |
[01:22.766] | It isn't all it seems at seventeen |
[01:30.792] | A brown eyed girl in hand me downs |
[01:34.686] | Whose name I never could pronounce |
[01:38.912] | Said pity please the ones who serve |
[01:43.034] | They only get what they deserve |
[01:49.742] | The rich relationed hometown queen |
[01:55.021] | Marries into what she needs |
[01:59.135] | With a guarantee of company |
[02:03.482] | And haven for the elderly |
[02:10.602] | So remember those who win the game |
[02:15.264] | Lose the love they sought to gain |
[02:19.826] | In debentures of quality and dubious integrity |
[02:26.817] | Their small town eyes will gape at you |
[02:31.063] | In dull surprise when payment due |
[02:36.012] | Exceeds accounts received at seventeen |
[03:15.327] | Their small town eyes will gape at you |
[03:19.864] | In dull surprise when payment due |
[03:24.768] | Exceeds accounts received at seventeen |
[03:32.032] | To those of us who knew the pain |
[03:36.654] | Of valentines that never came |
[03:41.453] | And those whose names were never called |
[03:45.077] | When choosing sides for basketball |
[03:51.962] | It was long ago and far away |
[03:57.248] | The world was younger than today |
[04:01.257] | And dreams were all they gave for free |
[04:05.557] | To ugly duckling girls like me |
[04:12.870] | We all play the game and when we dare |
[04:17.017] | We cheat ourselves at solitaire |
[04:21.857] | Inventing lovers on the phone |
[04:25.978] | Repenting other lives unknown |
[04:28.910] | That call and say come dance with me |
[04:34.191] | And murmur vague obscenities |
[04:38.160] | At ugly girls like me at seventeen |
