So, I must tell you of my adventure last night.
Slash this morning. I sailed a wild, wild sea
Climbed up a tall, tall mountain... The girls of our posse: Chelsea, Kate, Rachel, Brittanie, and Caroline. Spontaneously decided to walk to the rec center for a late evening swim. I met an old, old man
Beneath a weeping willow tree... After which we went for a jaunt downtown for some ice cream. It sounds so very normal. Because it was, at this point. He said, now if you've got some questions
Go and lay them at my feet... We came back to beautiful old Hudson Hall. Home sweet home. But my time here is brief
So you'll have to pick just three... We watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Glorious film. Silly English k-niggits. And I said, what do you do with the pieces of a broken heart? We were getting very sleepy. After all, it was the wee small hours of the morning. And how can a man like me remain in the light? I bade the girls sleep well and moseyed across the hall to my own room just after The Castle Anthrax. I thought about all the things there were to do. Bio lab, bio reading, psychology paper, English reading... And if life is really as short as they say
Then why is the night so long? Bio lab graphs, bio reading, psychology paper, English reading, English journals... Laundry. And then the sun went down
And he sang for me this song... I fell fast asleep within moments of lying down. Surrounded by the friendly faces of high school days. See, I once was a young fool like you
Afraid to do the things that I knew I had to do... I awoke with a start at 2:51 in the morning. Sirens. Fire. So I played an escapade just like you
I played an escapade just like you... I fumbled in the dark for a few moments. Glasses, hoodie, keys, phone. The stairwell was very smoky. I sailed a wild, wild sea
Climbed up a tall, tall mountain... We waited outside for several minutes before Rachel, Brittanie, and I decided to go someplace warm. We went to the building just west of us and stayed with our good friend Joe for perhaps, thirty minutes. I met an old, old man
He sat beneath a sapling tree... I was almost asleep again when Rachel looked out the window and saw our fellow Hudsonites filing back inside. So, we decided everything must be under control. Back to bed. He said, now if you've got some questions
Come and lay them at my feet... Our hopes were tragically dashed when we found that we could go inside, but not to our rooms. We had to stay in the main lounge until they could reset the fire alarms. But my time here is brief
So you'll have to pick just three... For over an hour we waited in the lounge with hundreds of other people. Sitting on the floor, sleeping, talking, facebooking. I just wanted my bed. And I said, what can you do with the pieces of a broken heart? Finally, the residence hall coordinator stood up in front of us with a megaphone. She said the second floor was still too smoky to reset the alarms. And that it would be best for us to find someplace else to sleep. And how can a man like me remain in the light? So I vacated poor, decrepit Hudson Hall at five a.m. And went to my good friend Caleb's room, for his roommate went home for the weekend, providing an extra bed. And slept like a baby. And if life is really as short as they say
Then why is the night so long? There is a valuable life lesson here. Have good friends. And take the foil off your Ramen noodles before you put them in the micowave. And then the sun went down
And he sang for me this song... Ciao, Caroline R. Lavelock |
