Karaoké Sixteen Going On Seventeen La Mélodie du bonheur (comédie musicale)

You wait, little girl on an empty stage for fate to turn the light on

Your life, little girl is an empty page that men will want to write on

To write on

You are sixteen going on seventeen baby it's time to think

Better beware be canny and careful baby you're on the brink

You are sixteen going on seventeen fellows will fall in line

Eager young lads and roues and cads will offer you food and wine

Totally unprepared are you to face a world of men

Timid and shy and scared are you of things beyond your ken

You need someone older and wiser telling you what to do

I am seventeen going on eighteen

I'll take care of you

I am sixteen going on seventeen

I know that I'm naïve

Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet and willingly I believe

I am sixteen going on seventeen innocent as a rose

Bachelor dandies drinkers of brandies what do I know of those

Totally unprepared am I to face a world of men

Timid and shy and scared am I of things beyond my ken

I need someone older and wiser telling me what to do

You are seventeen going on eighteen

I'll depend on you
