Girl:
Beauty queen, majesty, I'm every boy's fantasy
They stop and stare as I walk by. I give a twirl and bat my eye
At seventeen I am the envy of all the fat and poor and ugly girls
They look at me and see perfection
Perfect smile and all my gorgeous curls
They always bow down to the goddess
I'm the queen of popularity
Well, it's not easy being perfect
But it's easy being seventeen
Woman:
Suddenly you've grown a beard like Santa Claus
You're hot, you're cold, you're hot again, blame menopause
My mother signed me up for j-date
She's embarrassed I still live at home
Yet all of this seems rather funny
Eating twinkies after I get stoned
The face I had's no longer with me
Now every day is halloween
But watch me as I do a handstand
My face turns back to seventeen
BOTH:
W: All those days,
G: I'm beautiful aren't I?
W: All my life years ago
Now I sag
G: Look at my perky tits
W: And they fall
G: Everything is absolutely perfect
W: Straight down to hell
W: At seventeen....
G: At seventeen,
W: My life was perfect,
G: I'm perfect, I'm beautiful, I'm everything you'd want to be
W: I was everything you'd want to be
W: At seventeen,
G: At seventeen,
W: I was dense and easy
G: I'm gorgeous, I'm stunning
W: I was everybody's guarantee
G: And everybody look at me
G: They always bow down to the goddess
W: At forty three, I'm sagging, I'm aching.
G: While the boys,
W: While my boobs are hanging on the floor
G: It's not easy being perfect
W: At forty-three I'm grumpy
G: But it's easy being seventeen
W: I'm ready to be the girl I was before
W: At seventeen
G: My life is so perfect
G: At seventeen
W: If only life were that easy
At Seventeen!!
