The Dollyrots - 17 Lyrics

Don't you think you're a bit too grey
Inviting her out for a coffee
Enamoured by pictures you paint
Spontaneous lust so nave

Making out
Strawberries and skinny swimming
Keeps coming back because she was young
And thats how you like them to stay

Hold me hold me
Tell me I'm the only
One I want to
17 and lonely
I want you
I want you
All to myself
Thats what he told me

Casual you ask her to play
Illusions of romance burning
Innocent but still no mistakes
Cause she smelled his last girl victim

Sneaking out
Heart pounding her bare feet racing
Dangerously close to her last chance
Cause he almost got her to stay

Hold me hold me
Tell me I'm the only
One I want to
17 and lonely
I want you
I want you
All to myself
Thats what he told me
Hold me hold me
Tell me I'm the only
One I want to
17 and lonely
17
Shes just 17

He knows what works he put out the bait
She bites again unsuspecting
Hes beautiful such a worldly face
Shes thinking hell be her teacher

Figured out
Shes soft and she thinks you're worth it
Keeps coming back each time more jaded
We wonder what made her that way
We wonder what made her that way

Hold me hold me
Tell me I'm the only
One I want to
17 and lonely
I want you
I want you
All to myself
Thats what he told me
Hold me hold me
Tell me I'm the only
One I want to
17 and lonely
I want you
I want you
All to myself
Thats what he told me
17
