Repo! The Genetic Opera : Seventeen Lyrics

Shilo Wallace, Chorus


Shilo
Seventeen! Mama drama's got to go, dad!
Seventeen! Nothing's gonna bring her back!
Seventeen! Experiment with something living!
Seventeen...! And I'm sweeter than sixteen!

Shilo and Chorus
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Chorus
Seventeen!

Shilo
I've always longed for true affection.

Chorus
Seventeen!

Shilo
But you compare me to a corpse!

Chorus
Seventeen..!

Shilo
Stay with the dead, I'm joining the living..!

Chorus
Seventeen!

Shilo
'Cause I'm freer than sixteen!

Shilo and Chorus
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Shilo
Something's changing.
I can feel it now.
I'm seventeen now
Why can't you see it?
Seventeen, and you can't stop me!
Seventeen, and you won't boss me!
You cannot control me, father.
Daddy's girl's a fucking monster!
