[00:00.00] 作曲 : Janis Ian
[00:00.514] 作词 : Janis Ian
[00:01.544] at seventeen
[00:03.602] 一峰至爱Janis Ian
[00:07.496] i learned the truth at seventeen
[00:11.507] that love was meant for beauty queens
[00:14.446] and high school girls with clear siknned smiles
[00:20.461] who married young and then retired
[00:23.491] the valentines i never knew
[00:31.149] the friday night charades of youth
[00:35.885] were spent on one more beautiful
[00:39.571] at seventeen i learned the truth
[00:47.37] and those of us with ravaged faces
[00:50.781] lacking in the social graces
[00:54.824] desperately remained at home
[00:58.707] inventing lovers on the phone
[01:02.552] who called to say come dance with me"
[01:07.197] and murmured vague obscenities
[01:11.128] it isn't all it seems at seventeen
[01:17.987] a brown-eyed girl in hand me downs
[01:22.419] whose name i never could pronounce
[01:25.736] said"pity please the ones who serve,
[01:30.499] they only get what they deserve"
[01:36.941] and the rich relationed home town queen
[01:41.496] marries into what she needs
[01:44.707] with a guarantee of company and haven for the elderly
[01:56.526] remember those who with the game
[02:00.397] lose the love they sought to gain
[02:03.981] in debentures of quality and dubious integrity
[02:11.720] the small town eyes would gape at you in dull surprise
[02:18.24] when payment due exceeds accounts received at seventeen
[03:19.514] to those of us who knew the pain
[03:23.535] of valentines that never came
[03:27.994] and those whose names were never called
[03:31.685] when choosing sides for basketball
[03:38.544] it was long ago and far away
[03:42.682] the world was younger than today
[03:47.365] and dreams were all they gave for free
[03:51.02] to ugly duckling girls like me
[03:57.498] we all played the game and when we dared
[04:01.903] to cheat ourselves at solitaire
[04:05.631] inverting lovers on the phone
[04:09.376] repenting other lives unknown
[04:12.933] they call and say "come dance with me"
[04:17.66] and murmur vague obscenities
[04:21.872] at ugly girls like me--at seventeen
