Marina and the Diamonds - Seventeen

Used to be a major scale
But the melody went stale
Musical cacophony let
Insy Winsy Spider free

You're a rich little boy
Who's had to work for his toys
You've got all the sensibilities, oh
Of an upper class guy, no

No, I'm not your little slave
No, I don't twist and turn that way
Only got bad things to say
You're always asking what's up, up with me

Could never tell you what happened
The day I turned seventeen
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
No, seventeen
Seventeen Oh, you were embarrassed of me
'Cause I use my tongue freely
Bet you wish I couldn't speak
'Cause when I do, you know
I'll tell you why you appear weak

You want a hassle free life?
Go get your upperclass wife
She's got all the personality, oh
Of a lemon that has been truly sucked dry

You teach me how to behave
I felt you question the way
I was brought up as a baby
Well, you don't know fuck about my family

Could never tell you what happened
The day I turned seventeen
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
No, seventeen
Seventeen
No, seventeen
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
No, seventeen

Never felt like a princess
I used to kill myself in this dress
That it was just how things
Were meant to be
Oh, seventeen
