Marina and the Diamonds lyrics : "Seventeen"

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 sensibilities
Of an upper class guy


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

Seventeen
Seventeen


Oh you were embarrassed of me
Because 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 wanna hassle free life

Go get your upper class wife
She's got all personality of a lemon
That has been, truly, sucked 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 $#&@ 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

Seventeen
Seventeen
Seventeen

The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
Seventeen


The rise of a king, the fall of a queen
Never felt like a princess
I used to kill myself in this dress

That it was just how things were meant to be

Oh seventeen

Seventeen
