Seventeen's Song
PYT
Pretty Young Thing
Poisoned by stress
Plagued with intelligence
Burning with aspirations
And crashing in 24 hour time locks
so ambitious for a juvenile
Dancing Queen
Only 17
She survives until the weekend
She lives for Friday night
And the laughs in between long days
Her hair glows in opposite headlights
It’s late in the shotgun of her best friend’s car
Driving away from the suburbs and stress
Headlong into the city lights
Uptown Girl
She’s looking so fine
On a jaywalk to the Piano Man
To dance to a memory
She’s not really sure how it goes
Because
she is young!
Ideal nostalgia is her present
Dancing on the streets
Girls just wanna have fun
Want to be the one to walk in the sun
…..
Whatchu gonna do with your life?
She won’t worry about that now
She’s young!
It’s a girl, my lord!
Take it easy
