16

(album: Sixteen - 1983)

9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15... 16, ooh!
Just step aside, I'm busting out all over
16, ooh, woo... woo...
Take a look inside, you see I'm so much older

Look out, I'm not messing 'round
I got a brand new attitude
No doubt I'm growing strong and proud
Wait and see, just watch me bloom

I've been waiting oh so long
For this moment to arrive
And now I'm moving on

16, just step aside
Just step aside, I'm busting out all over
16, ooh, woo... woo...
Take a look inside, you see I'm so much older

16, ooh, woo... woo...
The time is right, I'm busting out all over
16
Take a look inside, you see I'm so much older

Jump back, I'm pushing through the crowd
I'm out to pave a fresh new way
My act is all together now
I'm ready for the modern day

I've been waiting oh so long
I've been waiting so long
And now I'm moving on

16, just step aside
Just step aside, I'm busting out all over
16, take a look, take a look
Take a look inside, you see I'm so much older

16, ooh, woo... woo...
The time is right, I'm busting out all over
16, take a look, take a look
Take a look inside, you see I'm so much older, older, baby

I'm a little bit, I'm a little bit older
(16, sweet 16)
Hey-ey, I'm a little bit, just a little bit older
(16, sweet 16)
Oh, oh...

I'm pushing through the crowd
I'm out to pave a fresh new way
My act is all together now

16
16, sweet 16...

I've been waiting oh so long
For this moment to arrive
And now I'm moving on

16, just step aside
Just step aside, I'm busting out all over
16, ooh... ooh...
Take a look inside, you see I'm so much older

16, hey... hey...
Just step aside, I'm busting out all over
Busting out all over (16)
Ooh... ooh, ooh...
You see I'm older, baby (16)

16
16, sweet 16...
