Mom says, i'm way too small,
My friends are way to tall,
I'm just daddy's little girl.
I want to grow up fast, i'd like to have a blast.
I want to be a big girl!
- now!

Why can't they see, that all the little girls,
Like me,
They just wanna be..

17, you know what i mean!
17, and i'm prom queen!
17, only in my dreams,
17, and i'm prom queen!
Sometimes, it's just not fair,

Mom and dad - they just don't care!
They think, i'm just as sweet as pie,
Won't hurt what they don't know.
Now, it's time for me to gro-o-w!
I want to be a big girl!
- now!

Why can't they see, that all the little girls,
Like me,
They just wanna be..

17, you know what i mean!
17, and i'm prom queen!
17, only in my dreams,
17, and i'm prom queen!

17, you know what i mean!
17, and i'm prom queen!
17, only in my dreams,
17, and i'm prom queen!

Why can't i be, how ever old i want to be,
It's up to me, i'm tired of being little me!
I just want to be, ya ya ya..
I'm 17, you know what i mean.. going on 19!

17, you know what i mean!
17, and i'm prom queen!
17, only in my dreams,
17, and i'm prom queen!

Here, there and in between, one day, i will be 17!
