Seventeen (Original Version)

[Verse 1]

Used to be a major scale

But the melody went stale

Musical cacophony, let

Incy Wincy spider free

You're a rich little boy

Who's had to work for his toys

You've got all the sensibilities, oh

Of an upper class guy

[Pre-Chorus 1]

No, oh, no I'm not your little slave

No I don't twist and turn that way

Only got bad things to say

You're always asking what is up, up with me

[Chorus]

You'll never find out what happened

The day I turned seventeen

The rise of a king and the fall of a queen, oh

Seventeen (Seventeen)

[Verse 2]

Oh, you were embarrassed of me

'Cause I used my tongue freely

Bet you wish I couldn't speak

'Cause when I do, you know

I tell you why you're being weak

You want a hassle free life?

Then find your upper class wife

She's got all the personality, oh

Of a lemon that has been truly sucked dry

[Pre-Chorus 2]

You teach me how to behave

I felt you question the way

I was brought up as a baby

Well, you don't know fuck about my family

[Chorus]

You'll never find out what happened

The day I turned seventeen

The rise of a king and the fall of a queen

Oh, seventeen

[Outro]

Never fell down like a princess

But at least I picked myself up like a queen
