🎵 Luyện Nghe Bài Hát: At Seventeen - Janis Ian

 I learned the  at seventeen
 That  was meant for beauty queens
 In high school  with clear skinned smiles
 Who married  and then retired
 The valentines I never 
 The Friday night  of youth
 Were spent on one more 
  seventeen I learned the truth
 And  of us with ravaged faces
 Lacking in the  graces
 Desperately  at home
 Inventing lovers on the 
  called to say come dance with me
 And murmured  obscenities
 It isn't all  seems
 At seventeen
 
 A brown eyed girl in hand me 
 Whose name I never  pronounce
 Said,  please the ones who serve
 They only get what they 
 And  rich relationed hometown queen
  into what she needs
 A  of company
 And haven  the elderly
 Remember those who win  game
 Lose the love  sought to gain
  of quality
 And  integrity
 Their small  eyes will gape at you
 in dull surprise  payment due
 Exceeds  received
 At seventeen
 
 To those of us  knew the pain
 Of valentines that never 
 And those whose names were never 
 When  sides for basketball
 It was long  and far away
 The world was  than today
  dreams were all they gave for free
  ugly duckling girls like me
 We  play the game and when we dare
 To cheat  at solitaire
 Inventing lovers  the phone
  other lives unknown
 That call and  come dance with me
 And murmur  obscenities
 At ugly girls  me
 At seventeen
