[00:00.00] 作曲 : Janis Ian
[00:01.00] 作词 : Janis Ian
[00:11.630] I learned the truth at seventeen
[00:15.670] That love was meant for beauty queens
[00:19.930] And high school girls with clear skinned smiles
[00:25.600] Who married young and then retired
[00:31.350] The valentines I never knew
[00:35.598] The Friday night charades of youth
[00:40.880] Were spent on one more beautiful
[00:44.338] At seventeen I learned the truth
[00:47.189]
[00:51.148] And those of us with ravaged faces
[00:56.580] Lacking in the social graces
[00:59.598] Desperately remained at home
[01:03.128] Inventing lovers on the phone
[01:06.978] Who called to say, "come dance with me"
[01:12.880] And murmur vague obscenities
[01:15.798] It isn't all it seems at seventeen
[01:19.798]
[01:22.529] A brown eyed girl in hand-me-downs
[01:27.160] Whose name I never could pronounce said
[01:30.999] Pity, please, the ones who serve
[01:35.138] They only get what they deserve
[01:41.678] The rich-relationed home-town queen
[01:46.128] Marries into what she needs
[01:49.559] With a guarantee of company and haven for the elderly
[01:56.577]
[02:00.818] Remember those who win the game
[02:05.348] Lose the love they sought to gain
[02:09.490] In debentures of quality
[02:12.988] And dubious integrity
[02:16.510] Their small town eyes will gape at you in
[02:20.340] Dull surprise when payment due
[02:25.180] Exceeds accounts received at seventeen
[02:29.370]
[03:24.800] To those of us who knew the pain
[03:29.300] Of valentines that never came
[03:33.320] And those whose names were never called
[03:37.360] When choosing sides for basketball
[03:44.900] It was long ago and far away
[03:48.620] The world was younger than today
[03:53.200] And dreams were all they gave for free
[03:56.920] To ugly duckling girls like me
[04:00.800]
[04:03.0] We all play the game and when we dare
[04:07.320] To cheat ourselves at solitaire
[04:11.900] Inventing lovers on the phone
[04:14.670] Repenting other lives unknown
[04:18.620] That call and say, "come dance with me"
[04:23.990] And murmur vague obscenities
[04:27.510] At ugly girls like me, at seventeen
