Luyện nghe bài hát At Seventeen

I the truth at seventeen
That love was for beauty queens
And school girls with clear-skinned smiles
Who married and then retired

The valentines I knew
The Friday charades of youth
Were on one more beautiful
At seventeen I the truth

And those of us with ravaged
Lacking in the social
Desperately at home
lovers on the phone
Who called to say "Come dance me"
And murmured obscenities
It all it seems at seventeen

A brown eyed girl in
Whose I never could pronounce
Said, "Pity, please, the ones who
They only get they deserve.
The rich relationed hometown
Marries into she needs
a guarantee of company
And for the elderly"

So those who win the game
Lose the they sought to gain
In debentures of
And dubious
The small town eyes gape at you
In dull surprise when due
Exceeds accounts at seventeen

To those of us who knew the
Of that never came
And those names were never called
When choosing sides for
It was long ago and far
The world was than today
dreams were all they gave for free
To ugly ducking like me

We all play the game and we dare
We cheat at solitaire
Inventing on the phone
Repenting other unknown
That and say, "Come dance with me"
And murmur vague
At girls like me at seventeen
