I'm a teen
And not a thing
I'm eighteen
Doesn't mean you should compare me to eight things

I'm not a thing you can easily dispose
Cos your naked secrets, I'll surely expose
Don't look at me like someone who's suffering from boredom
Cos I'll suprise you with my too much wisdom

Never look down on the age
You'll never be able to handle that age's knowledge
Afterall, age is just a number
So, wake up from your slumber

I'm not a toy
Which when bored, it's company you'll enjoy
I'm a precious gold
That can never get old

For the last time
I'm a teen
And not a thing
