At Seventeen-露云娜

[00:02.45]曲词：Janis Ian [00:09.07]I learned the truth at seventeen [00:13.28]That love was made for beauty queens and [00:18.06]High school girls with clear skinned smile [00:21.88]Who married young and then retired [00:27.18]The valentines I never knew [00:31.35]The Friday night charades of youth were spent [00:36.88]On one more beautiful [00:39.59]At seventeen I learned the truth [00:45.85]And those of us with ravaged faces, [00:50.26]Lacking in the social graces [00:53.57]Desperately remained at home [00:57.09]Inventing lovers on the phone [01:00.67]Who called to day"Come dance with me," [01:05.37]And murmured vague obscenities [01:09.46]It isn't all it seems at seventeen [01:15.59]A brown-eyed girl in hand me-downs [01:19.64]Whose name I never could pronounce [01:23.97]Said,"Pity,please the ones who serve" [01:28.19]They only get what they deserve [01:33.50]The rich relationed home-town queen [01:37.74]Married into what she needs [01:41.87]A guarantee of company [01:45.66]And haven for the elderly [01:51.85]Remember those who win the game [01:56.16]Lose the love they sought to gain [01:59.42]In debentures of quality and dubious integrity [02:06.87]Their small town eyes will gape at you [02:11.23]In dull surprise when payment's due [02:15.91]Exceeds accounts received at seventeen. [03:13.33]To those of us who know the pain [03:17.40]Of valentines that never came [03:21.53]And those whose names were never called [03:25.45]When choosing sides for bassketball [03:31.14]It was long ago and far away [03:35.71]The world was younger than today [03:39.63]And dreams were all they gave for free [03:43.97](Sorry,there are no official Lrc) [03:49.24]We all play the game and when we dare [03:53.75]To cheat ourselves at solitaire [03:57.43]Inventing lovers on the phone [04:01.01]Repenting other lives unknown [04:04.83]That call and say"Come dance with me" [04:09.49]And murmur vague obscenities [04:13.01]It isn't all it seems at seventeen
