Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Strong jaw, rough red skin
Jug head, flat top grin
She tastes like cigarettes and whiskey
Came far too close to me with
Strong hands and urgency
Thank God for faded ancient history
[PreChorus]
She came all the way from Sweden
Just to teach a boy to dance
And I'm trying not breathe in
But she never gave this innocence a chance
[Chorus]
Even though I told you what was going on
It wasn't part of any teenage dream
But you just let it happen like there's nothing wrong
For God's sake, I was 13
[Verse 2]
Built like a brick shit house
Stale breath and mouth to mouth
Locked doors to keep out any witness
Six foot will pin you down
No way to turn around
Slurred words and ugly stolen kisses
[PreChorus]
She came all the way from Sweden
Just to teach a boy to dance
And she told me not to speak it
She never gave this innocence a chance
[Bridge]
She came all the way from Sweden
This is house, this is my home
Just to teach a boy to dance
Why didn't you believe me?
She came all the way from Sweden
This was my space, my safe place
Just to teach a boy to d–
[Chorus]
Do you even remember when I told you what was going on
It wasn't part of any teenage dream
How could you let it happen like there's nothing wrong?
For God's sake, I was 13
[Outro]
I was 13
For God's sake, I was 13.
