The Library (feat. Aesop Rock) |
| Where better to go with a two-year-old who gets cabin fever when it’s raining |
| cold? |
| Or you could just chill out, no whistles and bells, and read everything by hand |
| with books and wells |
| We could color with crayons, we could put together puzzles |
| We could read about triumphs, we could read about struggles |
| You could be a wizard, I could be a muggle |
| We could sit in the rocking chair and snuggle |
| The library, the library |
| Is the perfect place for me |
| The library, the library |
| You can hang out all day and it doesn’t cost a penny! |
| The library, the library |
| Is the perfect place for me |
| The library, the library |
| It’s such a big part of our community |
| You could check your email |
| You could check out books |
| You could take things home |
| Or just sit and look |
| At magazines, computer screens |
| There’s books on tape, there’s DVDs! |
| There’s people there who are ready |
| To help you find the things you need! |
| There’s fiction, non-fiction, and new releases! |
| My heart broke into a million little pieces |
| When I walked in that day and saw the sign that said |
| You’d be closed for a really, really long time |
| Desk was made into a makeshift shrine |
| Checked out all your artwork and I added mine! |
| The library, the library |
| Is the perfect place for me |
| The library, the library |
| You can hang out all day and it doesn’t cost a penny |
| Is the perfect place for me |
| The library, the library |
| It’s such a big part of our community |
| The grass was heavy! |
| with dewey decimals |
| When I woke up that morning my fingers trembled |
| As I reheated my coffee in the microfish, waved goodbye to you |
| Now here’s a greeting card for your catalog |
| As we start these few chapters of your autobiography |
| Two months without you was two months too long |
| We’re so happy you’re back we wrote you this song! |
| The library, the library |
| Is the perfect place for me |
| The library, the library |
| You can hang out all day and it doesn’t cost a penny |
| The library, the library |
| Is the perfect place for me |
| The library, the library |
| It’s such a big part of our community |
| [Verse 4: Aesop Rock |
| Excuse me, hi, this library’s groovy |
| And I always like the book version better than the movie! |
| But I need a little help 'cuz I’m totally a noobie! |
| Where can I find all the Bloom comma Judy? |

| are in the young-adult section (okay), and some are even in the adult section! |
| (wow!) All of the fiction books are arranged alphabetically by the author’s |
| last name. |
| (oh.) Are you really looking for books just by Judy Bloom, or. |
| are there any particular. |
