Swingin' Utters - Heaven At Seventeen lyrics

Your rating:






You reached for heaven at seventeen

And caught the clap from some teenage queen

Took some tablets, hit it again

and that's all right

Sometimes you took the stacked deck too far

Some say you took it all way too hard

The mediocrity in moderation

was way too tight



Did you ever stop to think

of what was real?

Did you compromise your time

just to cop a feel?



Sometimes you think that the time flew by

Some twenty years ago come July

You're getting older but not so wise

And that's all right

You go for words that you cannot reach

Spew antiseptic allegories

a walking diuretic

of dictionary rhymes



Don't you even know your dreams

are not for real

Don't you ever find it hard

to forge what you feel



Just quit your bitching and confess

the time of your life just came and went

you're gonna drown in shallowness

in the empty sea of frat boys and dunces



You reached for Heaven at seventeen 

and caught the clap from some teenage queen

woke up from your suburban daydream

opened your eyes
