1	I learned the truth at seventeen,						I learned the truth at seventeen	1
2	That love was meant for beauty queens.						That love was meant for beauty queens	2
3	In high school, girls with clear-skin smiles,						And high school girls with clear skinned smiles	3
4	Who married young and then retired.						Who married young and then retired	4
5							The valentines I never knew	5
6	The valentines I never knew.						The Friday night charades of youth	6
7	The Friday night charades of youth,						Were spent on one more beautiful	7
8	Were spent on one more beautiful.						At seventeen, I learned the truth.	8
1	At seventeen I learned the truth.							1
9							And those of us with ravaged faces	9
10	And those of us with ravaged faces,						Lacking in the social graces	10
11	Lacking in the social graces,						Desperately remained at home	11
12	Desperately remained at home,						Inventing lovers on the phone	12
13	Inventing lovers on the phone.						Who called to say “Come dance with me”	13
14	Who called to say come dance with me.						And murmured vague obscenities	14
15	And murmured vague obscenities.						It isn’t all it seems at seventeen.	15
2	It isn't all it seems,							2
16	At seventeen.						A brown-eyed girl in hand-me-downs	16
17							Whose name I never could pronounce	17
18	A brown-eyed girl in hand-me-downs.						Said “pity please the ones who serve	18
19	Whose name I never could pronounce,						They only get what they deserve”	19
20	Said, "Pity, please, the ones who serve,						And                  the rich-relationed hometown queen	20
21	They only get what they deserve."						Marries into      what she needs	21
22							With a guarantee of company	22
3	And the rich-relationed, hometown queen,							3
4	Marries into what she needs.							4
5	With a guarantee of company,							5
	And haven for the elderly.						And haven for the elderly.
23	Remember those who win the game,						Remember those who win the game	23
24	Lose the love they sought to gain.						Lose the love they sought to gain	24
25	In debentures[3] of quality,						In debentures of quality	25
26	And dubious integrity.						And dubious integrity	26
27	The small-town eyes will gape at you,						Their small-town eyes will gape at you	27
28	In dull surprise, when payment due,						In dull surprises, when payment due	28
29	Exceeds accounts received.						Exceeds accounts received at seventeen.	29
6	At seventeen.							6
30							To those of us who new the pain	30
31	[Instrumental break.]						Of valentines that never came	31
32							And those whose names we never called	32
33	To those of us who knew the pain,						When choosing sides for            the basketball	33
34	Of valentines that never came.						It was long ago and far away	34
35	And those whose names were never called,						The world was younger than today	35
36	When choosing sides                  for basketball.						When dreams were all they gave for free	36
37							To ugly duckling girls like me.	37
7	It was long ago and far away,							7
38	The world was younger than today.						We all play the game, and when we dare	38
39	And dreams were all they gave for free,						We cheat ourselves at solitaire	39
40	To ugly-duckling girls like me.						Inventing lovers on the phone	40
41							Repenting other lives unknown	41
42	We all play the game and when we dare,						That call                  and say “Come dance with me”	42
43	To cheat ourselves at solitaire.						And murmured vague obscenities	43
44	Inventing lovers on the phone,						At ugly girls like me, at seventeen.	44
8	Repenting other lives unknown,							8
9	That call and say, come dance with me,							9
10	An' murmur vague obscenities,							10
11	At ugly girls like me,							11
