My friends all know it How I adore him I whisper to angels What I'd do for him He is the answer To a teenage prayer He won't go steady The crowd has told me But I keep waiting To have him hold me Why won't you listen To a teenage prayer? I await by the window at seven And chill when my thrill pa**es by His kiss could send me to heaven Into his arms I would fly My girlfriend Betty tells me he's lazy But i know Betty loves him like crazy He is the answer To a teenage prayer
