Lyrics:

Hey J, watching over you in Nebraska
The flood plains move over the farms,
A disaster
The sun heats air until it swirls in tornados
But you move solemnly along

She said you will be the consummate scholar
And she said,
Do you know the world is your oyster?
The man says
Come and we will climb Mount Olympus
But all you want is to be there

In the presence of her smile
In the presence of her smile
In the presence of her smile

We are circling over clouds, we are tethered
Wondering when you're going
To hit bumpy weather
Your heart skips every time
You detect her fragrance
She's out there stinking up the late evening air
With other boys

A plague on other boys
How this feeling does annoy you!
A plague on other boys

They say - how can you know love,
You're a minor?
You say - what else could I know,
This defines me
I've stopped growing, I'm a mess, I'm defeated
My grade point average went to hell

Watching listening for a cultural movement
Get strong lenses to see into the future
March on Washington,
If she's in the vanguard
Base your politics on
What she's got written on her flag

What she's written on her flag
What she's written on her flag
My body's mine and you're a drag

What she's written on her flag
What she's written on her flag
People are good, and walls are madness
She wrote it on her flag

Ten long years it took to shake the memory
The pain, humiliation
But then suddenly you realise
You're free to fraternise again

She got married stayed in town
And raised a home
See her at Thanksgiving
There's a roped off part of every human heart
For the first one you loved
