lyrics

All alone now, but you swear you're coming back.
It's been far too long since i fought off such a sweet advance.
Your reckless chivalry, well i just don't have time for that,
So i'll stay 17 until you straighten this thing out.

If you do it, do it just right.
If you do it, do it just right.
If you do it, do it just right.

You've taken me and nearly tore my head apart.
There's no vacancy in the motel of your bleeding heart.
Now you want sympathy? Ha ha! Honey, good luck with that.
Oh i'll stay 17 until you straighten my head out.

If you do it, do it just right.
If you do it, do it just right.
If you do it, do it just right.

17 til you straighten this out for me,
I'll be stuck at 17 til you straighten this out for me...
I'll be stuck at 17 til you straighten this out.

All alone again, and relishing the peace and quiet.
And I love myself too much to let you treat me like a child.
So au revoir! Farewell! Good luck with all your this and that!
You stay 17, and I'll just do it just right.

I'm gonna do it just right.
Just right!
