[00:00.000] 作词 : Janis Ian
[00:00.772] 作曲 : 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
