Lyrics Dodie Clark – Stuck The Way We Are

I’m seventeen
And I’m nearly eight
I was born too early
And I was born too late

But we’re stuck
The way we are

I color in pictures
I spin around
I giggle so hard until I fall down
I’m studying hard so that I pass
I now don’t have much time to laugh
But it’s unfair that you’re so tall!
What are you kidding? I’d love to be small!
You get away with anything cause you’re so sweet
You try high heels with small feet

But we’re stuck
The way we are

Time goes too (slow) fast
I wish time would (go) go back to the past
I feel too (young) old
But we still have to do what we’re told
But we still have to do what we’re told

I’m seventeen
And I’m nearly eight
I was born too early
And I was born too late
How I wish I was older
I was younger

But we’re stuck
The way we are

Time goes too (slow) fast
I wish time would (go) go back to the past
I feel too (young) old
But we still have to do what we’re told
But we still have to do what we’re told

I jump on the sofa
I crawl on my knees
I like to eat fish fingers and peas
I have to sit properly now I’m grown
At least you have a mobile phone
But it’s unfair, you have a small nose
Yes but I’m pretty sure that it will grow
You get away with anything cause you’re so sweet
You try high heels with small feet!

Time goes too (slow) fast
I wish time would (go) go back to the past
I feel too (young) old
But we still have to do what we’re told
But we still have to do what we’re told

But we still have to do what we’re told
