No Doubt - Sixteen Lyrics
One, two, three, four...Yeah!Youve been a juvenileWith a dolphin smileWith no elbow roomWith your body in bloomYouve had your little backyardProtected by big wallsYou didnt dare look overcause youve been too smallNow youre finally sixteenAnd youre feelin oldBut they, they wont believeThat you got a soul no whoa nocause your only sixteenAnd youre feelin realBut you, you cant seem to cop a feel no whoa noWhy do they have to force usThrough this metamorphoseLittle butterflyNo matter how you tryYoull be segregatedYoure gonna be closed offYoure callow and youre greencause youre caught betweenYoure only sixteenTry to cross the lineBut your little wings are intertwined no whoa noYeah youre only sixteenAnd youre such a teaseAnd theres nothing you doThat can really please no whoa nothese childrenTheyre not really bad most of themTheyre just productsOf rotten neighborhoodsAnd bad family situationsYou know you cant forsake itSo sit back and take itYou see youre just not ripeSo dont try to fight thatYoure only sixteenYou wanna catch a peekBut they, they look at youLike youre such a freak no whoa noWell youre only sixteenWith a lot to sayBut they wont give youThe time of day no whoa noWell youre only sixteen! (youre only sixteen)Hey youre only sixteen!! (youre only sixteen)Hey youre just sixteen!!! (youre only sixteen)You poor little thing.
