Fourteen

[Intro]

Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to-

Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to-

[Verse 1]

You will bear the scars of this dark time forever

You will hear that survival is some glorious endeavour

[Pre-Chorus]

But you're fourteen (Yeah, you're fourteen)

And they're so mean (Yeah, they're so mean)

[Chorus]

I don't think it's your fault, oh baby

I don't think it's your fault, oh

[Verse 2]

When they say they won't help you through it

It's just because they can't

When they're tryin' to hurt you baby

Well, that's because they can

[Pre-Chorus]

But you're fourteen (Yeah, you're fourteen)

And they're so mean (Yeah, they're so mean)

[Chorus]

I don't think it's your fault, oh baby

I don't think it's your fault, oh

[Bridge]

Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to let you down

(Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to let you down)

Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to let you down

(Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to let you down)

Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to let you down

(Josephine, don't be mean, I wasn't tryin' to let you down)

(I wasn't tryin' to let you down)

[Outro]

Little girl, you wanna know someone you look up to?

Be careful what you wish for

You might end up buryin' me

Little girl, you wanna know someone you look up to?

(Josephine, don't be mean) Be careful what you wish for

You might end up buryin' me

Little girl, you wanna know someone you look up to?

(Josephine, don't be mean) Be careful what you wish for

You might end up buryin' me (Josephine, don't be mean)

(I wasn't tryin' to let you down)

Little girl, you wanna know someone you look up to?

(Josephine, don't be mean) Be careful what you wish for

You might end up buryin' me (Josephine, don't be mean)

(I wasn't tryin' to let you down)

Little girl, you wanna know someone you look up to?

(Josephine, don't be mean) Careful what you wish for

You might end up buryin' me
