Apology Song |
I’m really sorry Steven |
But your bicycle’s been stolen |
I was watching it for you |
'Til you came back in the fall |
Guess I didn’t do a good job after all |
I was feeling really sorry Steven |
And I spent all morning grieving |
And everybody’s saying |
That you’ll take the news gracefully |
Somehow I don’t think I’ll get off that easily |
I meant her no harm |
When I left her unlocked |
Outside the Orange Street Food Farm |
I was just running in |
Didn’t think I’d be that long |
I came out, she was gone |
And all that was there was some bored old dog |
Leashed up to the place where your bicycle had been |
Guess we’ll never see poor Madeleine again |
Let this be consolation, Steven |
That all the while you were in England |
I treated her with care and respect |
And gave her lots of love |
And I was usually pretty good 'bout locking her up |
Where has she gone? |
Well, I bet she’s on the bottom of a Frenchtown pond |
Rudely abused on some hescher’s joyride |
So I wrote you this song |
In the hope that you’d forgive me |
Even though it was wrong |
Being so careless with a thing so great |
And taking your poor Madeleine away, away |
