"Books In The Sewer"


On her desk always sits the pencil, the pen
Also the ruler
Never forgets to buy her brand new quire
Opens her eyes to hear the chirping outside

Crossing...the road, on the black...and white strips
She didn't see it coming
Well the truck just went right through her
Now her books lay in the sewer

(the bass pities the girl)

She made it to college alright
Like her Mama taught her
There's no time to waste about cause
All her wishes long ago put to rest

Crossing the road on the black and white strips
Oh!...she didn't see it coming
Well the truck...just went right through her
Now her books lay in the sewer
