Marina And The Diamonds - Seventeen lyrics

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 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 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, 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 You teach me how to behave I felt you question the way I was brought up as a baby Well you don't know f** 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 Oh seventeen (seventeen) Oh seventeen, oh seventeen The rise of the king and the fall of a queen, Oh seventeen Never felt like a princess I used to k** myself in this stress That it was just how things were meant to be Oh seventeen, seventeen
