<lyrics>I was at the Jabberjaw  
<poem>I was at the Jabberjaw  
The cutest boy I ever saw
The cutest boy I ever saw
He was standing behind me
He was standing behind me
Line 37: Line 37:
I want to make him mine all mine
I want to make him mine all mine
I told my friends I wanted to leave
I told my friends I wanted to leave
And they embarassed me
And they embarrassed me
I took my keys out for my car
I took my keys out for my car
Walked down the street not very far
Walked down the street not very far
Line 47: Line 47:
He said "I heard you asked 'bout me"
He said "I heard you asked 'bout me"
And I responded "yes" quietly
And I responded "yes" quietly
He said "i'm leaving on wednesday
He said "i'm leaving on Wednesday
Come see me when Low plays"
Come see me when Low plays"
So I went to see him again
So I went to see him again
