NO DOUBT lyrics : "Sixteen"

You've been a juvenile
With a dolphin smile
With no elbow room

With your body in bloom
You've had your little backyard
Protected by big walls

You didn't dare look over
'Cause you've been too small
Now you're finally sixteen

And you're feeling old
But they won't believe
That you've got a soul


'Cause you're only sixteen
And you're feeling real

But you can't seem to cop a feel
Why do they force us
Through the metamorphose


Little butterfly
No matter how you try

You'll be segragated
You're gonna be closed off
You're callow and you're green


'Cause you're caught between
You're only sixteen

Try to cross the line
But your little wings are intertwined
You're only sixteen

And you're such a tease
And there's nothing you do


That can really please
"These children
They're not really bad most of them

They're just products
Of rotten neighborhoods
And bad family situations"


You know you can forsake it
So sit back and take it

You see you're not just ripe
So don't try and fight that
You're only sixteen


You wanna catch a peek
But they look at you

Like you're such a freak
Well, you're only sixteen
With a lot to say

But they won't give you
The time of day


You're only sixteen!
You're only sixteen!!
You're only sixteen!!!

You poor little thing
