Lecher! Apologise, be sorry
Apologise for you wouldn't want to be another lecher

Slow is the night
That wipes the tears from your eyes

Lecher! Apologise, be sorry
Jurassic Park your husk in the burning
Bed of mess you laid
Bleeding conscience knows

Lecher! Apologise, be sorry
Apologise for you wouldn't want to be another lecher
Lecher! Apologise, be sorry
Apologise for you wouldn't want to be another lecher
Bleeding conscience left you slow

Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker, let him know
That your heart's on fire
Your eyeball's inflamed
And you arm's incinerated
Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker, let him know
That your mouth's excited
Your body's entwined
And your tongue's incarcerated
Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker, let him know
That your heart's on fire
Your body's entwined
And your ???
Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker
Lie to the tracker, let him know

I sit astride your rough-fed cigarette burns
Wondering just what you looked like so long ago
I sit astride your rough-fed cigarette burns
Begging with you, pleading you to know

Lecher! Apologise, be sorry
Apologise for you wouldn't want to be another lecher

Lecher! Do not deny your body the right to choose all its form and corneal function
Bleeding closer helped you know.

wake up demonstrations
said silence is the wrong word
i'm gonna keep the names
that i use for myself to myself
a summer sun is shining
what will it be tomorrow?
i want to watch the world
from the edge of my seat
when it burns
seventeen can't be wrong
seventeen cannot see
i can't believe
it's been so long
seventeen follow me
i want to walk the outside
they're burning down the houses
i'm gonna keep my eyes
on the ground
when i walk where i walk
i can't believe
it's been so long
can't believe i can't see
seventeen can't be wrong
seventeen fall on me
never stop never mind
can't get good times
summer day sunshine
feels like anodyne
phone jams gridlock
standing at the bus stop
ten'o clock tick-tock
look at what the world's got
please her please me
gonna make a big scene
here comes faith comes
banging on a tin drum
don't try you can't fail
can't win you can't play
ten'o clock tick-tock
look at what the world's got

Backseat of her daddy's car
I was trying not to go too far
Kept thinking about the words the preacherman said
Lightnin' flashed across the sky
I saw love in a young girl's eyes
And that's a look you never forget

Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby

Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams

Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen

Legs hangin' off the Bayou Bridge
Feedin' fish potato chips
And talkin' about the mysteries of the universe
Yeah, the world was somewhere else
We had the Summer all to ourselves
And the stars went off like fireworks

Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby

Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams

Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen

Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby

Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams

Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen

Hung up here on a web of comfort.
Taking off with nowhere to go.
Standing tall with but your new cloak armor.
Making out like it's all been done.
It's harder than it seems.
You slip but never fall.
They'll take you, when you wont come back to me.
Tearing down what we built up so well.
Layin low as you came my way.
Look alive with your head on backwards, goin off when there's nothin wrong.
It's only in your dreams, but it felt like it was real.
They'll take you, when you won't come back to me.
Hang loose, my friend dont walk away from me,
because i really think you're cool.
Is it worth turning back despite these open hands?
You're tearing me apart.
They'll take you, when you won't come back to me.
(you need to find yourself).

I get back home at a quarter to four
What ya doin' with ya keys inside my door?
Seventeen and you've never been here before

I try my best not to put you down
But there's a hole in my head where the words fall out
I don’t care what faithless people say
Should I care?

Seventeen
Don't change one thing

We take our chances every day
We watch those bleeding hearts decay
I’d walk through walls, would it make you stay?

I burnt my bridges and I burned my friends
If I had my time, I’d do it again
I don't care what faithless people say
I don't care

Seventeen
Don't change one thing
Just burn to the end
That's seventeen girl
Seventeen
Don’t change one thing
Just burn to the end
That's seventeen girl

I don't wanna talk, I wanna go home
There's a voice in my head, won’t leave me alone
I want you to follow me home

Coz I know this star that we transcend
Could be the only chance we get
Seventeen, I’ve never been here before

Seventeen
Don't change one thing
Just burn to the end
That's seventeen girl
Seventeen
Don’t change one thing
Just burn to the end
That's seventeen girl
Burn to the end

Seventeen, I was living life
Chasing dreams and my hopes were high
Trying to get around my fear of
When and where do I go from here

I asked somebody close to me
Who could see a lot further than a boy could see
Oh, oh, oh and he said...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over
Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

I said you're at that time of life when your heart is strong
Your future's bright, you can do no wrong
And don't you let those feelings out of sight
Keep a hold of them as the years go rolling by

These words have always stuck with me
But now I'm only getting what it all appears to mean
Oh, oh, oh and he said...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I still feel seventeen inside, not one day over
Don't let the trials of life, change who you are tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

He said...my years have come and gone, in oh such little time
And I hope you live your life the way that I lived mine
Stay young at heart, stay young in mind

So I said...

Oh my, oh my, oh my these days are flying by
I'm still seventeen inside, not one day over
I won't let the trials of life, change who I am tonight
Stay seventeen each time you get one year older

One year older, one year older....oh my oh my oh my oh my

So stay seventeen each time you get one year older

They only want you when you're seventeen
When you're twenty-one
You're no fun
They take a polaroid and let you go
Say they'll let you know
So come on
(*repeat 7 times*)

We only want you when you're seventeen
When you're twenty-one
You're no fun

You're only twenty-nine
Gotta lot to learn
But when your mummy dies
She will not return

We like noise
It's our choice
It's what we wanna do
We don't care about long hair
I don't wear flares

See my face, not a trace
No reality
I don't work, I just speed
That's all I need

I'm a lazy sod I'm a lazy sod
I'm a lazy sod I'm so lazy

I'm a lazy sod I'm a lazy Sid
I'm a lazy sod I'm so lazy
I can't even be bothered
lazy lazy

SHILO:

YOU CANNOT CONTROL ME, FATHER.
DADDY’S GIRL’S A FUCKING MONSTER!

He’s seventeen,
he’s like a machine.
He’s of steel,
he’s a cog in the wheel,
a spine so steep,
he’d never weep
but you could buy him pretty cheap.

Didn’t fit in school.
A stupid rule
made him a fool.
But bragging bold
what he’s been told,
that’s his gold.

A perfect master’s tool.
Dignity is astray
if you can pay.
He would even gladly
go the easy way out,
line of least resistance.
He’s the king of cash.
He’s a gold digger soldier.

Unknowingness
are hurting less,
won’t be a mess.
Affordability and
getting things for free
is of importance,
to be fed on champagne and
get it directly in the vein.

He’s a puppet in a show,
just an undertow.
(But) he doesn’t know.

i was only seventeen, my whole life in front of me with my head down
and just like all those movie screens, i thought that i could live my dreams
but i'm not now
this time, is something that you can't get back

and suddenly i'm twenty-two
my whole world is in my view, i can see it
and just like my mother told me to, i can do anything i wanna do
if i believe it, and i believe it
this time, it's something that you can't get back

slow down everybody's moving far too fast to see where they're going
and if we're feeling hopeless its cause we never notice what we have (what we have)

on and on the story goes, where it stops no one knows but me
on and on the story goes, where it stops no one knows but me

slow down everybody's moving far too fast to see where they're going
and if we're feeling hopeless it's cause we never notice what we have (what we have)

slow down, slow down
slow down, slow down
(on and on the story goes, where it stops no one knows but me)
slow down, slow down

Swim across the sky
So atlantic black and green
Distant red rust of the passing ships
Counterweights the sun and the day has seemed to me
Meet it’s watershed and surrenders
The stratosphere where the stars live tumbles down
Stumbles toward earth
Like you do
And you do too
Black waves unfazed by a metamorphosis
Hurl white crests toward the shore
The sounds of war like water seamless
Driving till the morning

All this time i’ve been hesitating
No much longer it’s so frustrating
Try to pull a breath down in the dark
If it seems like it’s here
And it smells like it’s here
I don’t want to find out otherwise

The stratosphere where the stars live tumbles down
Stumbles toward earth
Keep me here for days
keep me in a daze
The hum of the factory keeps me in a daydream

All this time i’ve been hesitating
No much longer it’s so frustrating
Try to pull a breath down in the dark
If it seems like it’s here
And it smells like it’s here
I don’t want to find out otherwise

Perfectly
Not a hair is out of place
Helps me sleep at night
Perfectly
Not a hair is out of place
Bigger than the dry land

Look at me I'm only seventeen
The many years between us
Have been broken
Look at me under the evergreen
Life is a mellow dream
Almost unspoken

By the way
You said you're here to stay
Let me love you til tomorrow
Then it will last a year and a day
Maybe we're here to forget

Look at me, I'm only seventeen
It hasn't been too long
But it's been lonely
Look at me, and smell the tangerine
Life is a mellow song
But only only

By the time
You reach your lemon-lime
I will love you till tomorrow
Then it will last a year and a day
Maybe we're here to forget

Look at me, I'm only seventeen
It hasn't been too long
But it's been lonely
Look at me, under the evergreen
Life is a mellow song
If only only...

Late last night
I get a call from a so-called friend
He wouldn't give his name
Says he saw you with another man
Feels like seventeen years
It's only seventeen days
Since I saw the real you
And I let you walk away

You left me broken
You left me stranded
The way you play this game of love
It's just plain underhanded
I spent a lot of time
And I spent all my money
Don't want no other fool
To put his hands on you

Who you been talkin' to?
Yeah who you been walkin' with?

Seventeen, you're just seventeen
Seventeen

They said I was playin' with fire
I knew I had to take a chance
I had to take you higher
To a new experience
But little did I know
I'd never get that far
Girl, you know you put on quite a show
You're gonna be a star

When you grow older, girl
You'll remember I told you, girl

Seventeen, you're just seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen

Seventeen, you're just seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen

Seventeen, you're only seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen

Yeah
I saw sparks fly
From the corner of my eye
And when I turned (whoo)
It was love at first sight
I said please excuse me
I didn't catch you name (whoa)
It'd be a shame
Not to see you again

Bridge:
And just when I thought
She was coming to my door
She whispered sweet
And brought me to the floor
She said

I'm only seventeen (seventeen)
I'll show you love like you've never seen oh
She's only seventeen (seventeen)
Daddy says she's too young
But she's old enough for me

Come to my place
We can talk it over oh
Everything going down in your head
She said take it easy
I need some time
Time to work it out
To make you mine

And just when I thought
She was coming to my door
She whispered sweet
And brought me to the floor
She said

I'm only seventeen (seventeen)
You ain't seen love
Ain't seen nothing like me
She's only seventeen
Seventeen yeah

[Solo]

Oh such a bad girl
Loves to work me over time
Feels good (ha)
Dancin' close to the borderline
She's a magic mountain
She's a leather glove (oh)
She's my soul
It must be love

She's only seventeen (seventeen)
The girl she gives me love like I've never seen
She's only seventeen (seventeen)
Daddy says she's too young
But she's old enough for me
(Seventeen)
She's everything I need (seventeen)
Daddy says she's too young
But she's old enough
Old enough for me
Yeah yeah yeah

[Verse 1]
Five foot seven with light green eyes
Body built like a woman over twenty-five
Plus she push the whip that the average women couldn't get
Less she worked about two nine to five's
Girly played the game just a little too mature
She damn near had everything I was looking for
But things seemed shady
When I asked my lady to meet at the club
She had trouble at the door
That's when I found out that
(Ohh)
She was only seventeen years old
And I couldn't see her no more
(Ohh)

[Chorus:]
I ain't tryin to see myself locked up
For knockin up some young joan
(Ohh)
How could I explain this situation to my family
And all of my boys
(Ohh)
I'm sorry shorty
But you've got to get gone
Yeah

[Verse 2]
I tried to cut her off
But she wasn't having it
She kept telling me her age didn't mean sh--
And that's when she started to cry
Baby I need you in my life
And without you I just couldn't handle it
So what's a brother to do
(Ohh)
Either way I lose
(So)
I could just say my piece
Or piss off her peeps
And talk it out with the boys in blue
Cause when it comes down to it
(Ohh)
She was just seventeen years old
And I was dead wrong from the door
(Ohh)

[Chorus]

[Fade out]

Backseat of her daddy's car
I was trying not to go too far
Kept thinking about the words the preacherman said
Lightnin' flashed across the sky
I saw love in a young girl's eyes
And that's a look you never forget

Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby

Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams

Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen

Legs hangin' off the Bayou Bridge
Feedin' fish potato chips
And talkin' about the mysteries of the universe
Yeah, the world was somewhere else
We had the Summer all to ourselves
And the stars went off like fireworks

Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby

Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams

Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen

Seventeen only comes once in a lifetime
Don't it just fly by wild and free
Goin any way the wind blew, baby

Seventeen, livin on crazy dreams

Rock and roll and faded blue jeans
And standing on the edge of everything
Seventeen

well she never was the best
yeah at following the trends
stayed one step above the rest
and even though it seemed

like the world was crushing on her
didn't let it hold her down even hold her back
oh no

dont worry you'll show them
theres a fire in your eyes
and I hope youll let it burn
theres a scream in your voice
and I hope you will be heard
theres a fire in your eyes
and I hope you'll let it burn until you're heard
you're heard

seventeen is just a test
yeah and I would recommend
that you live with no regrets
and even if it seems

like the world was crushing on you
you shouldnt let it hold you down
shouldn't hold you back
oh no
oh no

dont worry you'll show them
theres a fire in your eyes
and I hope youll let it burn
theres a scream in your voice
and I hope you will be heard
theres a fire in your eyes
and I hope you'll let it burn until youre heard
youre heard

relax girl
turn down the lights
no one can see you shining
relax girl
it'll be alright
no one can stop you if you tried

point of rhythm is the fall await in time
to listen to the beating in your mind
and if you will seek then you shall find
woah oh

theres a fire in your eyes
and I hope youll let it burn
theres a scream in your voice
and I hope you will be heard
theres a fire in your eyes
and I hope you'll let it burn until youre heard
youre heard

Bueno, ella nunca fue la mejor.
Si, en el seguimiento de las tendencias
Se quedó un paso más atrás que el resto
Incluso cuando eso pareció

Como si el mundo estuviese chocando en ella
No dejes que la domine ni que la contenga
oh no

No te preocupes, tú les mostrarás
Que hay un fuego en tus ojos
Que espero lo dejes arder
Hay un grito en tu voz
Y espero seas escuchada
Hay un fuefo en tus ojos
Y espero lo dejes ardes hasta que seas escuchada
Seas escuchada

Los diecisiete son solo una prueba
Sí, y lo recomendaría
Que tu vives sin excusas
E incluso cuando eso parece

Como si el mundo estuviese chocando en ti
No deberías dejar que esto te domine
No deberías dejar que te contenga
oh no
oh no

No te preocupes, tú les mostrarás
Que hay un fuego en tus ojos
Que espero lo dejes arder
Hay un grito en tu voz
Y espero seas escuchada
Hay un fuefo en tus ojos
Y espero lo dejes ardes hasta que seas escuchada
Seas escuchada

Relájate, niña
Apaga las luces
Nadie puede verte brillando
Relájate, niña
Todo estará bien
Nadie puede detenerte si lo intentas

El punto del ritmo es la caida esperada a tiempo
Para escuchar el latido en tu mente
Y si buscas, encontrarás
woah oh

No te preocupes, tú les mostrarás
Que hay un fuego en tus ojos
Que espero lo dejes arder
Hay un grito en tu voz
Y espero seas escuchada
Hay un fuefo en tus ojos
Y espero lo dejes ardes hasta que seas escuchada
Seas escuchada

The rumor is out of London, wolf men underground
A couple more in Washington, they wouldn’t be too proud
From Gotham to Los Angeles, we know they come and go
And if there’s any trouble, there’s a man in Tokyo

Forget about the big names, you’ll never find ‘em here
The seventeen behind the scenes of every great career
Use every bribe and treachery, to rule every land
And roundin’ up the infidels who raise their hands
And if we knew the rest my friend, we wouldn’t want to wait
I’d be the first in line to stand them up straight

Who are the seventeen men who rule the world?

We should’ve seen it comin’ while there was still time
But soon every man will have stand in line
To get his daily ration of sufferin’ and war
But the armies of the world don’t know what they’re fighting for
If there was any justice we could stand our ground
Go marching through the boulevards to bring them down

Now if they meet resistance, I’ll sell them on my plan
I’m thinking seven figures but I’ll take a hundred grand
We’ll soften up the country with lies and beer
And then the true believers will have no fear
The wealth of every nation will fall into their hands
And now we know the reason is just because they can

You're only twentynine
Gotta lot to learn
But when your mummy dies
She will not return

We like noise
It's our choice
It's what we wanna do
We don't care about long hair
I don't wear flares

See my face not a trace, no reality
I don't work I just speed, that's all I need
I'm a lazy sod, I'm a lazy sod
I'm a lazy sod, I'm so lazy

Your
I'm a lazy sod, I'm a lazy sid
I'm a lazy sod, I'm so lazy
I can't even be botherd! Lazy

Lazy

Seventeen, seventeen, she's a solid seventeen
Young enough to dance and sing
Old enough to get that swing
Past sixteen just been kissed
Graduated and got that twist
Kind of love you can't resist
At seventeen
Now sloppy shirt, old blue jeans
Dirty shoes by all means
Patch of blonde, peroxide hair
Jukebox baby ain't no square
Seventeen, she's the queen
Cutest gal you've ever seen
All the boys are really keen
On the hep cat doll of seventeen

Seventeen, seventeen, she's a solid seventeen
