"The Ballad Of The 17 Year Old" lyrics

"The Ballad Of The 17 Year Old"

I said clean out
And you never did it
And I said talk to me
But you didn't take me seriously

[?]
Don't hate me for hurting
Sometimes things stop working

I said take me out
But you never did it
And I said talk to me
But you didn't take me seriously

[?]
Don't hate me for hurting
Sometimes things stop working
Don't hate me for hurting
Sometimes things stop working

And you know that you said
Teenage love's my dead
And remember how you told me
You'd be there to hold me
All those times that you said
Lying in my bed
How you never felt a woman
With me wrapped around you
You'd be there to a plan
Without me in your heart
But remember how I warned ya
How much [?]
