Awkward Age Joe Jackson

[Verse 1]
I should have known you were only just fifteen
You had a scowl like a Klingon beauty queen
Old enough to stand out but too young to stand with pride
So uncomfortable in your messed-up skin
And the cool parties never let you in
I can still relate to being left so high and dry
So don't cry
You're just at an awkward age

[Chorus]
We'll all be fine
Disgraceful under pressure
Don't tow the line
You're just at an awkward age
Don't cry (Just at an awkward age)
Don't cry (Just at an awkward age)
Just at an awkward—

[Verse 2]
You look at me like I know what's going on
I'm looking back and I wonder what went wrong
I really thought by now a few things might just clarify
I got a mind that goes out to lunch for days
And a body that sometimes disobeys
I get into the parties but I hate them 'cause I'm shy
Oh my
I'm still at an awkward age
