She's raspberry tokens
With an open door
Got sand on her eyes
And she knows what her hands are for
And she's too young
To know better
Than to stay away
From a man like me
And she's too smart
To think quickly
So she'll play me a song
On her borrowed guitar
Call me her man
And say I'm a star
She'll kiss me and miss me
Before I'm even gone
Cause she's young
She's too young
She's too damn young
She cries over nothing
And smiles over nothing
Makes love for no reason
Adds sugar to everything
Licks the frosting off first
And plays with her food
She likes making her Mom mad
And she's bad at being good
And she's young
And she's bright
And she keeps me awake
With her thoughts at night
And she's soft
And she's mean
She's still young enough to remember
Everything that she's seen
I look at her
And see the girl I couldn't get
When I was her age
I'm dancing on appropriate
And filling the page
Her Daddy don't like it
But her Mom says
It's just Nature's way
That a girl meets a man
And makes him feel like a boy
Her Mom said she learned
How to be a woman
By raising
Her Dad
And it's fucked up and twisted
And feels good all the same
And I feel dirty
Just saying her name
And she's young
And she'll leave
By the end of the year
She'll be running from me
And she's sly
And she's fun
And who knows what she'll be
By the time we're done
She's too young
She's too young
She's too young
She's too damn
Young
