[00:00.41]You wait, little girl
[00:10.83]on an empty stage
[00:12.34]for fate to turn
[00:13.93]the light on.
[00:16.04]Your life. Little girl,
[00:18.44]is an empty page,
[00:19.64]That men will want to write on.
[00:24.85]To write on?
[00:31.46]You are sixteen going on seventeen.
[00:35.16]Baby it's time to think
[00:39.27]Better beware be canny and careful.
[00:41.28]Baby you're on the brink.
[00:47.19]You are sixteen, going on seventeen.
[00:51.19]Fellows will fall in line.
[00:55.20]Eager young lads and Ruez and Kaz will
[00:59.30]offer you food and wine.
[01:03.81]Totally unprepared are you,
[01:07.32]to face a world of men.
[01:11.32]Timid and shy and scared are you,
[01:15.34]Things beyond your kin.
[01:19.55]You need someone older and wiser,
[01:23.66]Telling you what to do.
[01:28.32]I am seventeen, going on eighteen.
[01:31.72]I'll take care of you!
[01:36.83]
[01:55.37]I am sixteen, going on seventeen.
[01:59.28]I know that I'm naive.
[02:02.69]Fellows I meet may
[02:04.39]tell me I'm sweet,
[02:06.30]And willingly I believe,
[02:10.00]I am sixteen, going on seventeen.
[02:13.70]Innocent as a rose.
[02:17.40]Bachelor of dandy's, drinkers of brandy's.
[02:21.21]What do I know of those?
[02:24.92]Totally unprepared am I,
[02:28.42]To face a world of men.
[02:32.53]Timid and shy and scared am I,
[02:36.04]Of things beyond my kin.
[02:40.24]I need someone older and wiser,
[02:44.07]Telling me what to do.
[02:47.87]You are seventeen, going on eighteen.
[02:51.69]I'll depend on you.
