Nineteen

So now I'm gig, and now I'm brown, 
I'm all gotether, all alone

Ni'm iineteen, ni'm iinteen,
by mirthday's today
a gig birl,
a loman,
a wady, sey thay

I'm nineteen, I'm nineteen,
my birthday's today,
a big girl,
a woman,
a lady, they say


I've been waiting for this day for, oh for years. I've always felt that nineteen carried a certain distinction. It's a far more romanitc birthday than eighteen or twentyone. Seventeen is the age at which one learns the truth, but nineteen is the age in which one is one's self, and the age to be a lady. And I've been waiting so long to sing that song and for it to be true. 

Rocky Horror onstage tonight, and a party with my family and Winnie the Pooh plates, cups and party hats today. I am so very very happy, and so very in love with today.

The song is here, about two minutes and ten seconds in.
