    At 17 can be hard growing up poor in a little town Soon as the clock strike nine tonight she have work in an after hour joint Her mother to caught up working at the local diner trying to make end meat Mother trying to make sure she eat so no one around caught up with a step father with no job mother to hung to worry about momma little girl Soon as the curtain falls she has to bare it all right as the lights turn on Chorus At 17 No one really cares Vanity rage in her pretty head At 17 No one really there A young girl can come mislead in a world full of greed Innocent is never a thought what is right is never reverent At 17 It's hard to stay on honor roll She's failing every test No one really knows The teachers at her school don't care They whisper and stare as she go down the hall Maybe someone knows her secret after all Her face is seen at the gentleman's best Her future not to bright you know She's gonna drop out of high school who knows At 17 an adolescent she will not last until June Bridge She should be shopping with her friends at the mall She should be picking out her dress to the prom You know where she's headed in an hour No one to save Rapunzel from her tower At 17 At 17 This world is so insensate for a young girl looking to be inspired A teenage phase abducted Life no fairytale Life can be a gothel
