   now i'm seventeen my school is in the country
   students wear trainers  read the same magazines
   now i'm seventeen my school is getting tiresome
   teachers they're so young singling me out

   only like philosophy & after school the time
   that's what i call may own my own time 
   nice girls meet nice boys end of school day
   while other girls go straight home talking 'bout soaps that

   i go home alone like it watching the nameless people
   surfing subways, travelling somewhere "...nowhere..." 

   now i'm seventeen i do not have a title  
   depend on no one else  busy being kind

   only like philosophy & after school the time
   that's what i call may own my own time
   nice girls meet nice boys end of school day
   while other girls go straight home talking 'bout soaps that

   i go home alone and have dinner in my sweet home praying again,
   again & again & again & again & again & again...ah�`

   i see the same faces in school & they say that i am different 
   i think it's an honour i say it's an honour to B different
   i can't go their way

   surfing subways, travelling somewhere nowhere nowhere nono nono ah`

   i go home alone and have dinner in my sweetsweet home praying again, 
   again & again & again & again & again & again("...peace...")

   now i'm seventeen  now i'm seventeen
