[00:08.93] | I learned the truth at seventeen |
[00:12.97] | That love was meant for beauty queens |
[00:17.23] | And high school girls with clear skinned smiles |
[00:22.09] | Who married young and then retired |
[00:28.65] | The valentines I never knew |
[00:32.90] | The Friday night charades of youth |
[00:37.39] | Were spent on one more beautiful |
[00:41.64] | At seventeen I learned the truth |
[00:43.06] | |
[00:48.45] | And those of us with ravaged faces |
[00:53.36] | Lacking in the social graces |
[00:56.90] | Desperately remained at home |
[01:00.43] | Inventing lovers on the phone |
[01:04.28] | Who called to say, "come dance with me" |
[01:09.04] | And murmur vague obscenities |
[01:13.10] | It isn't all it seems at seventeen |
[01:17.10] | |
[01:19.83] | A brown eyed girl in hand-me-downs |
[01:24.46] | Whose name I never could pronounce said |
[01:28.30] | Pity, please, the ones who serve |
[01:32.44] | They only get what they deserve |
[01:38.98] | The rich-relationed home-town queen |
[01:43.43] | Marries into what she needs |
[01:46.86] | With a guarantee of company and haven for the elderly |
[01:53.88] | |
[01:58.12] | Remember those who win the game |
[02:02.65] | Lose the love they sought to gain |
[02:06.35] | In debentures of quality |
[02:10.29] | And dubious integrity |
[02:13.81] | Their small town eyes will gape at you in |
[02:17.64] | Dull surprise when payment due |
[02:22.48] | Exceeds accounts received at seventeen |
[02:26.67] | |
[03:22.10] | To those of us who knew the pain |
[03:26.06] | Of valentines that never came |
[03:30.62] | And those whose names were never called |
[03:34.66] | When choosing sides for basketball |
[03:41.39] | It was long ago and far away |
[03:45.92] | The world was younger than today |
[03:50.05] | And dreams were all they gave for free |
[03:54.22] | To ugly duckling girls like me |
[03:58.10] | |
[04:00.03] | We all play the game and when we dare |
[04:04.62] | To cheat ourselves at solitaire |
[04:08.57] | Inventing lovers on the phone |
[04:11.97] | Repenting other lives unknown |
[04:15.92] | That call and say, "come dance with me" |
[04:20.58] | And murmur vague obscenities |
[04:24.81] | At ugly girls like me, at seventeen |
