[Verse 1]
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 cla** guy
[Pre-Chorus 1]
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 is up, up with me
[Chorus]
Could never tell you what happened
The day I turned seventeen
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
Oh, seventeen, seventeen
[Verse 2]
Oh, you were embarra**ed of me
Cause I used my tongue freely
Bet you wish I couldn't speak, cause when I do
You know I tell you why you appear weak
You want a ha**le free life?
Go get your upper cla** wife
She's got all the personality, oh
Of a lemon that has been
Truly s**ed dry
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You teach me how to behave
I felt you question the way-ay
I was brought up as a baby
Well, you don't know f** about my family
[Chorus - Extended]
Could never tell you what happened
The day I turned seventeen
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
Oh, seventeen (seventeen)
Oh, seventeen, oh, seventeen
The rise of the king and the fall of a queen
Oh, seventeen
[Outro]
Never felt like a princess
I used to kid myself in this dress
That it was just how things
Were meant to be
Oh, seventeen
Seventeen
