🎵 Luyện Nghe Bài Hát: At Seventeen - Janis Ian

 I  the truth at seventeen
 That  was meant for beauty queens
 In high school girls  clear skinned smiles
 Who married  and then retired
 The  I never knew
 The  night charades of youth
 Were spent on one  beautiful
 At  I learned the truth
  those of us with ravaged faces
  in the social graces
 Desperately remained at 
 Inventing lovers on the 
  called to say come dance with me
 And murmured vague 
 It isn't all it 
 At seventeen
 
 A brown eyed girl in  me downs
 Whose name  never could pronounce
 Said,  please the ones who serve
 They  get what they deserve
 And the  relationed hometown queen
  into what she needs
 A guarantee of 
 And haven for the 
  those who win the game
 Lose the  they sought to gain
 Indebentures of 
 And dubious 
 Their small town eyes  gape at you
 in dull surprise  payment due
 Exceeds  received
 At seventeen
 
 To those of us who knew  pain
  valentines that never came
 And  whose names were never called
 When  sides for basketball
 It was long  and far away
 The world was  than today
  dreams were all they gave for free
 To ugly duckling girls  me
 We all play the game and  we dare
 To  ourselves at solitaire
  lovers on the phone
 Repenting other lives 
 That call  say, come dance with me
 And murmur  obscenities
 At ugly girls  me
 At seventeen
