| [00:15.629] | I learned the truth at seventeen |
| [00:19.402] | That love was meant for beauty queens |
| [00:23.669] | And high school girls with clear-skinned smiles |
| [00:28.188] | Who married young and then retired |
| [00:34.459] | The valentines I never knew |
| [00:38.222] | The Friday night charades of youth |
| [00:42.739] | Were spent on one more beautiful |
| [00:46.502] | At seventeen I learned the truth |
| [00:53.277] | And those of us with ravaged faces |
| [00:57.794] | Lacking in the social graces |
| [01:01.054] | Desperately remained at home |
| [01:04.152] | Inventing lovers on the phone |
| [01:08.170] | Who called to say, "Come dance with me" |
| [01:12.460] | And murmured vague obscenities |
| [01:16.810] | It isn't all it seems |
| [01:19.571] | At seventeen |
| [01:23.339] | A brown-eyed girl in hand-me-downs |
| [01:26.859] | Whose name I never could pronounce |
| [01:31.681] | Said, "Pity, please, the ones who serve |
| [01:35.446] | They only get what they deserve" |
| [01:41.970] | And the rich-relationed hometown queen |
| [01:45.736] | Marries into what she needs |
| [01:49.509] | With a guarantee of company |
| [01:53.022] | And haven for the elderly |
| [02:00.557] | Remember those who win the game |
| [02:04.834] | Lose the love they sought to gain |
| [02:08.348] | In debentures of quality |
| [02:12.165] | And dubious integrity |
| [02:15.930] | Their small town eyes will gape at you |
| [02:19.691] | In dull surprise when payment due |
| [02:24.206] | Exceeds accounts received |
| [02:27.269] | At seventeen |
| [03:34.461] | To those of us who knew the pain |
| [03:38.273] | Of valentines that never came |
| [03:42.789] | And those whose names were never called |
| [03:46.552] | When choosing sides for basketball |
| [03:53.077] | It was long ago and far away |
| [03:58.096] | The world was younger than today |
| [04:01.609] | When dreams were all they gave for free |
| [04:05.374] | To ugly duckling girls like me |
| [04:11.472] | We all play the game and when we dare |
| [04:15.999] | To cheat ourselves at solitaire |
| [04:19.765] | Inventing lovers on the phone |
| [04:23.277] | Repenting other lives unknown |
| [04:27.057] | They call and say, "Come dance with me" |
| [04:31.336] | And murmur vague obscenities |
| [04:35.626] | At ugly girls like me |
| [04:38.386] | At seventeen |
