Le Pastie De La Bourgeoisie

Sunbeam shone, mousy girl on the end pew
You'd stay home, oh, if only I let you
Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie

Municipal pool, you're a junior life saver
And you're friends are all serious ravers
Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie

Reading Judy Blume, oh, but you came too soon
You're too tall, much too tall for a boyfriend
They run and hide from your buck tooth and split ends
Don't be scared like the books you've read

You're the heroine, oh, you'll be doing fine
Wouldn't you like to get away?
Bestowing the memory of good and evil
On the ones you left behind, heartless swine

And you love like nobody around you
How you love and a halo surrounds you
Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie

In the Autumn cool, say cheerio to school
Listen dear, I've been watching you lately
If I said all these things you would hate me
Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie

At the church bazaar, I think I went too far
Wouldn't you like to get away?
Kerouac's beckoning with open arms
And open fields of eucalyptus, westward bound

Wouldn't you like to get away?
Give yourself up to the allure of 'Catcher in The Rye'
The future's swathed in Stars and Stripes

Wouldn't you like to get away?
Kerouac's beckoning with open arms
And open fields of eucalyptus, westward bound

Wouldn't you like to get away?
Give yourself up to the allure of 'Catcher in The Rye'
The future's swathed in Stars and Stripes
