Heathers Lyrics [Genderbend]

Seventeen

[VINCENT:]
Fine!
We're "damaged"
Really "damaged"
But that does not make us "wise"
We're not "special", we're not "different"
We don't choose who lives or dies
Let's be normal, see bad movies
Sneak a beer and watch TV
We'll bake brownies or go bowling
Don't you want a life with me?
Can't we be seventeen?
That's all I want to do
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
People hurt us

[J.D.:]
Or they vanish

[VINCENT:]
And you're right, that really blows
But we let go..

[J.D.:]
Take a deep breath

[VINCENT:]
Then go buy some summer clothes
We'll go camping..

[J.D.:]
Play some poker

[VINCENT:]
And we'll eat some chili fries
Maybe prom night

[J.D.:]
Maybe dancing

[VINCENT:]
Don't stop looking in my eyes

[J.D.:]
Your eyes

[BOTH:]
Can't we be seventeen
Is that so hard to do?
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
Let us be seventeen
If we still got the right

[VINCENT:]
So what's it gonna be?
I wanna be with you

[J.D.:]
I wanna be with you

[VINCENT:]
Wanna be with you

[BOTH:]
Tonight

[VINCENT:]
Yeah we're damaged

[J.D.:]
Badly damaged

[BOTH:]
But your love's too good to lose

[VINCENT:]
Hold me tighter

[J.D.:]
Even closer

[VINCENT:]
I'll stay if I'm what you choose

[J.D.:]
Can we be seventeen?

[VINCENT:]
If I am what you choose

[J.D.:]
If we've still got the right

[VINCENT:]
'Cause you're the one I choose

[J.D.:]
You're the one I choose

[BOTH:]
You're the one I choose
