Lyrics

[00:13.780] Rolfe: You wait little girl on an empty stage
[00:18.530] For fate to turn the light on
[00:22.940] Your life little girl is an empty page
[00:26.990] That men will want to write on
[00:31.950] Liesl: To write on...
[00:35.260] Rolfe: You are sixteen going on seventeen, baby it's time to think
[00:45.560] Better beware, be canny and careful, baby you're on the brink
[00:53.630] You are sixteen going on seventeen, fellows will fall in line
[01:01.650] Eager young lads, and roues and cads
[01:05.650] Will offer you food and wine
[01:10.110] Totally unprepared are you, to face a world of men
[01:17.670] Timid and shy and scared are you, of things beyond your ken
[01:25.710] You need someone older and wiser, telling you what to do
[01:33.860] I am seventeen going on eighteen, I'll take care of you
[01:51.770] Liesl: I am sixteen going on seventeen, I know that I'm naive
[02:14.800] Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet, and willingly I believe
[02:22.810] I am sixteen going on seventeen, innocent as a rose
[02:30.890] Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies, what do I know of those
[02:39.100] Totally unprepared am I, to face a world of men
[02:47.150] Timid and shy and scared am I, of things beyond my ken
[02:55.500] I need someone older and wiser, telling me what to do
[03:03.580] You are seventeen going on eighteen, I'll depend on you
