[00:08.31]I learned the truth at seventeen
[00:12.51]That love was meant for beauty queens
[00:16.57]And high school girls with clear-skinned smiles
[00:20.58]Who married young and then retired
[00:28.43]The valentines I never knew
[00:32.72]The Friday night charades of youth
[00:36.65]Were spent on those more beautiful
[00:40.53]At seventeen I learned the truth
[00:48.23]And those of us with ravaged faces
[00:53.09]Lacking in the social graces
[00:56.62]Desperately remained at home
[01:00.62]Inventing lovers on the phone
[01:04.55]Who called to say come dance with me
[01:08.48]And murmured vague obscenities
[01:13.05]It isn't all it seems
[01:16.56]At seventeen
[01:20.29]A brown-eyed girl in hand-me-downs
[01:24.66]Whose name I never could pronounce
[01:28.60]Said Pity please the ones who serve
[01:32.72]They only get what they deserve
[01:40.18]And the rich relationed hometown queen
[01:44.86]Marries into what she needs
[01:47.97]With a guarantee of company
[01:52.82]And haven for the elderly
[02:00.24]Remember those who win the game
[02:04.37]Lose the love they sought to gain
[02:08.40]In debentures of quality
[02:12.63]And dubious integrity
[02:16.42]Their small town eyes will gape at you
[02:20.38]In dull surprise when payment due
[02:25.05]Exceeds accounts received
[02:28.40]At seventeen
[02:44.39]To those of us who knew the pain
[02:48.63]Of valentines that never came
[02:52.68]And those whose names were never called
[02:56.64]When choosing sides for basketball
[03:04.38]It was long ago and far away
[03:08.49]The world was younger than today
[03:12.38]When dreams were all they gave for free
[03:16.11]To ugly duckling girls like me
[03:24.33]We all play the game and when we dare
[03:28.60]To cheat ourselves at solitaire
[03:31.92]Inventing lovers on the phone
[03:35.80]Repenting other lives unknown
[03:39.81]They call and say come dance with me
[03:43.85]And murmur vague obscenities
[03:48.18]At ugly girls like me
[03:51.14]At seventeen
