Awkward Age |
| I should have known you were only just fifteen |
| You had a scowl like a Klingon beauty queen |
| Old enough to stand out but too young to stand with pride |
| So uncomfortable in your messed-up skin |
| And the cool parties never let you in |
| I can still relate to being left so high and dry |
| Don’t cry |
| You’re just at an awkward age |
| We’ll all be fine |
| Disgraceful under pressure |
| Don’t tow the line |
| You’re just at an awkward age |
| Don’t cry — Just at an awkward age |
| Don’t cry |
| You’re just at an awkward… |
| You look at me like I know what’s going on |
| I’m looking back and I wonder what went wrong |
| I really thought by now a few things might just clarify |
| I got a mind that goes out to lunch for days |
| And a body that sometimes disobeys |
| I get into the parties but I hate them 'cause I’m shy |
| Oh my |
| I’m still at an awkward age |
| We’ll all be fine |
| Disgraceful under pressure |
| Don’t tow the line |
| You’re just at an awkward age |
| Don’t cry — Just at an awkward age |
| Don’t cry |
| You’re just at an awkward… |
| We’re supposed to be happy |
| Supposed to be tough |
| Supposed to be flawless |
| And buy the right stuff |
| They want us all swimming |
| Don’t care if we drown |
| So don’t let them take you down |
| It’s a scary mountain to climb up without a guide |
| Besides … |
| We live in an awkward age |
| We’ll all be fine |
| Disgraceful under pressure |
| Don’t tow the line |
| You’re just at an awkward age |
| Don’t cry — Just at an awkward age |
| Don’t cry |
| You’re just at an awkward… age |
