Sweet little girl, she's the high school queen She lives tonight, every school boys' dream Oh, but nobody knows how cryin' She's just a child goin' on seventeen
She gets so confused by her friends and their scenes They don't mean what they say They don't say what they She reads the signs, reads between the lines But it makes no difference There's no reason or rhyme
Just on girl, as long as you can In time you'll learn what you don't understand It's the human condition, it's the nature of man
This city boy, he don't want no control He just wanna party and play his rock 'n' roll But here they come to turn the pressure on son, your partyin' days are gone
The has come now to be a man Find your place in the world, gotta take what you can You've got no ambition, take a look yourself When ya gonna straighten out, be like everybody else
The boy said listen dad, you're bringin' me down I am who I I've had a good look around There's one thing in the world I can tell you I've found
CHORUS:
There ain't wonder things are so outta hand Sooner or later, ya come to understand The human condition, it's the nature of man
