Loudon Wainwright III - School Days Lyrics

Send School Days Ringtone to your Cell

In Delaware when I was younger
I would live the life obscene
In the spring I had great hunger
I was Brando, I was Dean

Blaspheming, booted, blue-jeaned baby boy
Oh, how I made them turn their heads
The townie, Brownie girls they jumped for joy
And begged me bless them in their beds

In Delaware when I was younger
I would row upon the lake
In the spring I had great hunger
I was Keats, I was Blake

My pimple pencil pain I'd bring
To frogs who sat entranced
My drift dream ditties I would sing
The water-strider danced

In Delaware when I was younger
They thought St Andrew had sufficed
But in the spring I had great hunger
I was Buddha, I was Christ

You wicked wise men, where's your wonder?
You Pharisees one day will pay
See my lightning, hear my thunder
I am Truth, I know the Way

In Delaware when I was younger
