Heathers: The Musical Cast - Seventeen Lyrics






[VERONICA:]
Fine!
We're "damaged"
Really "damaged"
But that does not make us "wise"
We're not "special", we're not "different"
We don't choose who lives or dies
Let's be normal, see bad movies
Sneak a beer and watch TV
We'll bake brownies or go bowling
Don't you want a life with me?
Can't we be seventeen?
That's all I want to do
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
People hurt us

[J.D.:]
Or they vanish

[VERONICA:]
And you're right, it really blows
But we let go..

[J.D.:]
Take a deep breath

[VERONICA:]
Then go buy some summer clothes
We'll go camping..

[J.D.:]
Play some poker

[VERONICA:]
And we'll eat some chili fries
Maybe prom night

[J.D.:]
Maybe dancing

[VERONICA:]
Don't stop looking in my eyes

[J.D.:]
Your eyes

[BOTH:]
Can't we be seventeen
Is that so hard to do?
If you could let me in
I could be good with you
Let us be seventeen
If we still got the right

[VERONICA:]
So what's it gonna be?
I wanna be with you

[J.D.:]
I wanna be with you

[VERONICA:]
Wanna be with you

[BOTH:]
Tonight

[VERONICA:]
Yeah we're damaged

[J.D.:]
Badly damaged

[BOTH:]
But your love's too good to lose

[VERONICA:]
Hold me tighter

[J.D.:]
Even closer

[VERONICA:]
I'll stay if I'm what you choose

[J.D.:]
Can we be seventeen?

[VERONICA:]
If I am what you choose

[J.D.:]
If we've still got the right

[VERONICA:]
'Cause you're the one I choose

[J.D.:]
You're the one I choose

[BOTH:]
You're the one I choose

Heathers: The Musical Cast Seventeen Comments
  1. P.... R....

    I really love this song. This version however changes the tone from the original. In the Anerican version veronica is softer and more hurt that anything over the trama from the past few days. In this version she just seems so done with all of JDs shit and it seems almost hostile at some points. I dont know if I like this better but its and interesting take. Keep up the great work.

  2. S.... ....

    "cant we be sad to [Music]"

    At some point I apparently stopped following this channel, but just now I pulled up the Heathers album for background music (ha), and it took a few songs in before I noticed Carrie's name among the artists. Damn! Had to come back here to find more info - not great when I'm working on my finals - but great job, Carrie!

  49. K.... r....

    This sounds so freaking good. I watched Heathers at my school but the JD actor was disappointing in vocals. He was quite good at acting though. My friend was in it and played Kurt pretty well.

  50. S.... D....

    I love when their accents slip out

  51. T.... M....

    I love heathers I was depressed when it finished finally the album is out love love your voice

  52. A.... ....

    I don't think you remember me but I played gavrouche with you at the queen's I have just finished school of rock in the west end I just wanted to say your a really good singer and I was privileged to work with you for six months

  53. A.... T....

    Carrie why do you prefer acting on Broadway theatre rather than in TV or movies and do you have any advice on why Broadway theatre “keeps going” if you know what I mean?

  54. R.... D....

    I love it

  55. C.... P....

    Have I listened to anything else on repeat since this was uploaded? No, no I haven’t. This is ALL the feels. AMAZING! I’m unhealthily obsessed 😂 x

  56. J.... !....

    Omg, your voice is “god”

  57. E.... O....

    Congrats on the wins for Heathers!!! 💙💙💙 xxx

  69. f.... 1....

  70. F.... M....

    Those intense stares and banging vocals ❤❤ these two stole my heart and the entire cast stole top fave musical spot in 2018!

  71. C.... ....

    this is amazing but i also find it funny that neither of them look remotely like they're 17

  72. L.... A....

    Still obsessed with this show!!! I'm so glad I was able to go watch you and this incredible cast performing it twice 😍

  73. S.... H....

    you are  so amazing sing Carrie Hope Fletcher I have see you sing Carrie in last year west end live 2018 I hope you come back too the west end live 2019

  74. E.... 8....

    My heart 💓

  75. E.... 8....

    I can’t get over this oml

  76. n.... ....

    biggest regret of the past year: not going to see Heathers. 💔

  77. e.... ....

    Stunning!! =)

  78. P.... J....

    This is so beautiful, dear lord. Jamie's voice is incredible and complements yours so well Carrie. You're both just... Amazing.

  79. R.... B....

    gives me goosebumps EVERY time

  80. M.... K....

    I love how Veronica seems angrier in the west end production. Barrett’s version just seemed so okay (???) throughout the show, and I think the addition of I Say No and Carrie’s emotion in her version of Seventeen makes her seem so torn between wanting someone to love her and hating what the cost of JD’s love is

  81. T.... N....

    sounds really great

  82. B.... N....

    Just....❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰😁🥰😁😘😍😘🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

  83. E.... G....

    OMG I love this, I can’t relive the musical all over again, can’t wait for the whole album to come out. Love you Carrie and Jamie 💙🖤

  84. D.... ....

    Omg so sad that I couldn't be there in England when you performed!

  85. S.... L....

    I have a weird Pavlovian dog response to Carrie's beautiful singing - I hear her voice and BAM, I'm crying

  86. E.... ....

    Very nice!

  87. M.... G....

    Holy crap 😲🥶 I’m spent 🤩😍🥰🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌👌

  88. s.... d....

    Adore this 😍❤️ thank you.

  89. J.... ....

    I’ve literally just watched this four times back to back. Love this song x

  90. S.... R....

    Cannot stop listening to this song! Your voices compliment each other amazingly! Both sound 👌💖

  91. m.... s....

    Love love love ❤️💙❤️

  92. C.... O....

    Fine, we’re damaged
    Really damaged
    But that does not make us wise
    We’re not special, we’re not different
    We don’t choose who lives or dies
    Let’s be normal, see bad movies
    Sneak a beer and watch tv
    We’ll bake brownies or go bowling
    Don’t you want a life with me?
    Can we be seventeen?
    That’s all I want to do
    If you could let me in
    I could be good with you
    People hurt us
    Or they vanish
    And you’re right that really blows
    But we let go, take a deep breath
    Then go buy some summer clothes
    We'll go camping, play some poker
    And we’ll eat some chilli fries
    Maybe prom night
    Maybe dancing
    Don't stop looking in my eyes (your eyes)
    Can't we be seventeen
    Is that so hard to do?
    If you could let me in
    I could be good with you
    Let us be seventeen
    If we still got the right
    So what’s it gonna be
    I wanna be with you (Wanna be with you)
    I wanna be with you tonight
    Yeah we’re damaged,
    Badly damaged
    But your love’s too good to lose
    Hold me tighter
    Even closer
    I’ll stay if I’m what you choose
    Can we be seventeen?
    If I am what you choose
    If we still have the right
    Because you’re the one I choose
    You’re the one I choose
    You’re the one I choose.

  93. M.... J....

    Wow, this is just something else 😍 love the smiles at the end, made me smile too! 😃

  94. B.... M....

    1. This song makes me wish even more that I had been to see Heathers but I hadn't long started a new chapter in my life and had a baby so couldn't travel that far.
    2. Oh wow this song reminds me of being 17/18 so badly and how love and emotions feel
    3. You sound absolutely incredible and not only that you sing and perform it with so much emotion that I felt emotional watching it which is why I love theatre and everything about it. Ignore all the haters and trolls you are incredible at what you do and make a tired mum like me very happy and disappear into the song after a difficult bedtime routine

  95. v.... ....

    CARRIE SOUNDS SO MUCH MORE ANGRY THAN BARRETT AND I'M SO GAY FOR IT AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  96. R.... T....

    Oohhhhh this is good. I feel like I’m cheating on the cast/version I *thought* I preferred. Now I’m confused in my emotions.

  97. V.... P....

    This was and will always be everything !

  98. S.... W....

    Amazing that’s all I can say amazing xx

  99. M.... 2....

    No offence to Barrett, I love her so so much, but Carrie has put a lot more emotion into the song than she did, and I feel it really brings it to life when you can only listen to it. But I love them both still.

  100. A.... ....

    This is gorgeous, I can't wait for the whole thing
