I should have know that you were only just fifteen You had a scowl like a Klingon beauty queen Old enough to stand out but to young to stand with pride So uncomfortable in your messed-up skin And the cool parties never let you in I can still relate to being so high and dry Don't cry... You're just at an awkward age We'll all be fine Disgraceful under pressure Don't toe the line You're just at an awkward age Don't cry- just an awkward age Don't cry You're just at an awkward... You look at me like i know what's going on I'm looking back and i wonder what went wrong I really thought by now a few things might clarify
I got a mind that goes out to lunch for days And a body that sometimes disobeys I get into the parties but i hate them 'cos i'm shy Oh my... I'm still at an awkward age We'll all be fine Disgraceful under pressure Don't toe the line You're just at an awkward age Don't cry- just an awkward age Don't cry You're just at an awkward... We're supposed to be happy Supposed to be tough Supposed to be flawless Snd buy the right stuff They want us all swimming Don't care if we drown Do don't let 'em take you down It's a scary mountain to climb up without a guide Besides... We live in an awkward age
