Seventeen

When I was just a little lamb

I used to talk in school cause that's all I really had

That's when the teacher said that I was bad

Dark to the core just like my brother Jack

So how could they call me out for being poor?

And think that is what I need

To bring me up to speed until I'm seventeen

To be seventeen

When I was just a smithereen

I used to skate all day, I used to say what I mean

Then I became her brand new toy

I used to drink a lot, I used to stay out with the boys

But how could she call me a fucking asshole

And think that is what I need?

How could she call me a fucking asshole?

Words that were meant to make me bleed

When I was seventeen

To be seventeen

To be seventeen

To be seventeen

To be seventeen
