Luyện nghe bài hát At Seventeen

I learned the at seventeen
love was meant for beauty queens
And high school girls clear-skinned smiles
Who young 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 faces
Lacking in the graces
Desperately at home
Inventing on the phone

Who to say, "Come dance with me"
And murmured vague
It isn't all it at seventeen

A girl in hand-me-downs
name I never could pronounce
Said, "Pity, please, the ones who
'Cause they only get what deserve"

And the rich relationed queen
Marries what she needs
With a of company
And haven for the

So those who win the game
Lose the they sought to gain
In of quality and dubious integrity

small town eyes will gape at you
In surprise when payment due
Exceeds accounts received at

To those of us who knew the
Of valentines never came
And those whose names were called
choosing sides for basketball

It was long ago and far
The was younger than today
When were all they gave for free
To ugly duckling girls me

We all the game and when we dare
To cheat at solitaire
Inventing lovers on the
Repenting lives unknown

They call and say, "Come with me"
And vague obscenities
At ugly like me at seventeen
