[00:00.000] 作曲 : Janis Ian
[00:04.67][01:29.37]And those of us with ravaged faces
[00:05.05][01:33.61]Lacking in the social graces
[00:09.39][01:38.11]Desperately remained at home
[00:13.90][01:42.35][04:12.06]Inventing lovers on the phone
[00:18.56][01:46.62]Who called to say "come dance with me"
[00:23.28][01:50.83]And murmured vague obscenities
[00:27.66][01:55.51]It isn't all it seems at seventeen
[00:45.95]I learned the truth at seventeen
[00:50.05]That love was meant for beauty queens
[00:54.24]And high school girls with clear skinned smiles
[00:58.60]Who married young and then retired
[01:07.70]The valentines I never knew
[01:11.46]The Friday night charades of youth
[01:15.95]Were spent on one more beautiful
[01:20.32]At seventeen I learned the truth
[02:04.14]A brown eyed girl in hand me downs
[02:07.54]Whose name I never could pronounce
[02:12.09]Said: "Pity please the ones who serve
[02:16.54]They only get what they deserve"
[02:25.77]The rich relationed hometown queen
[02:29.42]Marries into what she needs
[02:33.83]With a guarantee of company
[02:38.10]And haven for the elderly
[02:47.33]So remember those who win the game
[02:51.10]Lose the love they sought to gain
[02:55.59]In debitures of quality and dubious integrity
[03:03.83]Their small-town eyes will gape at you
[03:08.20]In dull surprise when payment due
[03:12.80]Exceeds accounts received at seventeen
[03:21.38]To those of us who knew the pain
[03:25.00]Of valentines that never came
[03:29.69]And those whose names were never called
[03:33.63]When choosing sides for basketball
[03:42.85]It was long ago and far away
[03:46.55]the world was younger than today
[03:51.16]when dreams were all they gave for free
[03:54.97]to ugly duckling girls like me
[04:04.05]We all play the game, and when we dare
[04:07.43]We cheat ourselves at solitaire
[04:16.20]Repenting other lives unknown
[04:20.72]That call and say: "Come on, dance with me"
[04:24.83]And murmur vague obscenities
[04:30.00]At ugly girls like me,at seventeen
