What's So Sweet About Sweet Sixteen

What's sweet about sweet sixteen

When you're alone?

It's Saturday night (it's Saturday night)

The moon is so bright (the moon is so bright)

And I've got no one of my own

What's sweet about sweet sixteen

When no one's there?

I'm all by myself (I'm all by myself)

Like a doll on a shelf (like a doll on the shelf)

Who is oh, oh so lost to share

Friends all send me

Presents and flowers

Greeting cards engraved in gold

But what I really

Want for my birthday

Is someone that I can hold

What's sweet about sweet sixteen?

I'm so alone

There's one thing to do (there's one thing to do)

Go to sleep feeling blue (go to sleep feeling blue)

'Cause I've got no one of my own

(Sweet sixteen)

There's one thing to do (there's one thing to do)

Go to sleep feeling blue (go to sleep feeling blue)

'Cause I've got no one of my own

(What's sweet about sweet sixteen?)

Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no one of my own

(What's sweet about sweet sixteen?)

Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no one of my own

(What's sweet about sweet sixteen?)
