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 |
