Librarian |
Walk across the courtyard, towards the library |
I can hear the insects buzz and the leaves 'neath my feet |
Ramble up the stairwell into the hall of books |
Since we got the interweb, these hardly get used |
Duck into the men’s room, combing through my hair |
When God gave us mirrors, he had no idea |
Looking for a lesson in the periodicals |
There, I spy you listening to the AM radio |
Karen of The Carpenters, singing in the rain |
Another lovely victim of the mirror’s evil way |
It’s not like you’re not trying, with a pencil in your hair |
To defy the beauty the good Lord put in there |
Simple little bookworm |
Buried underneath |
Is the sexiest librarian |
Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me |
So, I watch you through the bookcase, imagining a scene |
You and I had dinner, spending time, then you sleep |
And what then would I say to you, lying there in bed? |
These words with a kiss I would plant in your head |
What is it inside our heads that makes us do the opposite? |
Makes us do the opposite of what’s right for us |
Cause everything’d be great, and everything’d be good |
If everybody gave like everybody could |
Sweetest little bookworm |
Hidden underneath |
Is the sexiest librarian |
Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me |
Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me |
Simple little beauty, heaven in your breath |
Simplest of pleasures, the world at its best |
