MCMXIV - Ratboys

February 3rd was planned

I had to be present to ride on a bus

I walked around Chicago for hours on end

Woke up to someone watching me at Wabash and Grand

And nobody around me spoke a word

The entire afternoon nothing was said

Yet, I could enter into tourists' heads

With great effort I let them know, 'The tower’s up there'

I had no idea what to think about you

You have no idea how much I needed you

On this occasion, it was so sad

It was so sad

Making my way back home

Was bizarre, to say the least, because I wasn’t alone

Louisville looked like a ruby that once shown

Her mouth, the fluid motion of a smile collapsing

I have no idea what to think about you

You have no idea how much I needed you

On this occasion, it was so sad

On this occasion, it was so saaaaaaaad

All I am is just a Ratboy

All I am is just a Ratboy

All I am is just a Ratboy

All I am is just a Ratboy

All I am is just a Ratboy

And the roads continue down

Actually down to the South, as it’s known

I didn’t see much of Nashville that day

But, a Romanesque cathedral built in MCMXIV

Okay, that’s it
