Love Finals Andy Hardy - In Between - Judy Garland/Harry Sosnik
Fifteen thousand times a day
I hear a voice within me say
"Hide yourself behind a screen
You shouldn't be heard you shouldn't be seen
You're just an awful in-between
That's what I am an in-between
It's just like smallpox quarantine
I can't do this I can't go there
I'm just a circle in a square
I don't fit in anywhere
I'm past the stage of doll and carriage
I'm not the age to think of marriage
I'm too old for toys
And I'm too young for boys
I'm just an in-between
I'm not a child all children bore me
I'm not grown-up grown-ups ignore me
And in every sense
I'm just on the fence
I'm just an in-between
I'll be glad when momma lets me go to dances
And have romances
I'll be glad to have a party dress that boys will adore
A dress that touches the floor
I'm sick and tired of bedtime stories
I'm so inspired by love and glories
But I guess it's no use
I still get Mother Goose
I'm just an in-between
It's such an imposition
For a girl who's got ambition
To be an in-between
Instead of in-between
I'll be glad when uncle Jim
Can't call me"Precious child"
That simply drives me wild
I'll be glad to have a date
That doesn't grow on a tree
A date that's not history
I'll be so glad when I have grown some
All by myself I get so lonesome
And I hope and pray
For the day
When I'll be sweet sixteen
Then I won't have to be an in-beteen
