<pre><font size='+2'>AT SEVENTEEN lyrics IAN JANIS</font><br>I learned the truth at seventeen<br />
 That love was meant for beauty queens<br />
 And high school girls with clear-skinned smiles<br />
 Who married young and then retired<br />
 <br />
 The valentines I never knew<br />
 The Friday night charades of youth<br />
 Were spent on one more beautify<br />
 At seventeen I learned the truth<br />
 <br />
 And those of us with ravaged faces<br />
 Lacking in the social graces<br />
 Desp`rately remained at home<br />
 Inventing lovers on the phone<br />
 Who called to say `Come dance with me`<br />
 And murmered vague obscenities<br />
 It isn`t all it seems at seventeen<br />
 <br />
 A brown eyed girl in hand-me-downs<br />
 Whose name I never could pronounce<br />
 Said, `Pity, please, the ones who serve<br />
 They only get what they deserve.<br />
 The rich relationed hometown queen<br />
 Marries into what she needs<br />
 A guarantee of company<br />
 And haven for the elderly`<br />
 <br />
 Remember those who win the game<br />
 Lose the love they sought to gain<br />
 In debentures of quality<br />
 And dubious integrity<br />
 The smalltown eyes will gape at you<br />
 In dull surprise when payment due<br />
 Exceeds accounts received at seventeen<br />
 <br />
 To those of us who knew the pain<br />
 Of valentines that never came<br />
 And those whose names were never called<br />
 When choosing sides for basketball<br />
 It was long ago and far away<br />
 The world was younger than today<br />
 And dreams were all they gave for free<br />
 To ugly ducking girls like me<br />
 <br />
 We all play the game and when we dare<br />
 To cheat ourselves at solitaire<br />
 Inventing lovers on the phone<br />
 Repenting other lives unknown<br />
 That call and say, `Come dance with me`<br />
 And murmur vague obscenities<br />
 At ugly girls like me at seventeen<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/at_seventeen_lyrics-ian_janis.html" target='_blank'>AT SEVENTEEN lyrics IAN JANIS</a></pre>

I learned the truth at seventeen
That love was meant for beauty queens
And high school girls with clear-skinned smiles
Who married young and then retired

The valentines I never knew
The Friday night charades of youth
Were spent on one more beautify
At seventeen I learned the truth

And those of us with ravaged faces
Lacking in the social graces
Desp`rately remained at home
Inventing lovers on the phone
Who called to say `Come dance with me`
And murmered vague obscenities
It isn`t all it seems at seventeen

A brown eyed girl in hand-me-downs
Whose name I never could pronounce
Said, `Pity, please, the ones who serve
They only get what they deserve.
The rich relationed hometown queen
Marries into what she needs
A guarantee of company
And haven for the elderly`

Remember those who win the game
Lose the love they sought to gain
In debentures of quality
And dubious integrity
The smalltown eyes will gape at you
In dull surprise when payment due
Exceeds accounts received at seventeen

To those of us who knew the pain
Of valentines that never came
And those whose names were never called
When choosing sides for basketball
It was long ago and far away
The world was younger than today
And dreams were all they gave for free
To ugly ducking girls like me

We all play the game and when we dare
To cheat ourselves at solitaire
Inventing lovers on the phone
Repenting other lives unknown
That call and say, `Come dance with me`
And murmur vague obscenities
At ugly girls like me at seventeen
