They caught the boy who pulled the alarm today
Coach grabbed him by his shirt
Threw him on the stairs
Kim says he lives with his uncle in Bradley Beach
His favorite band's Metallica and at lunch he never eats
His brown eyes hidden behind his hair
Reading The Left Hand is Darkest
He sits with the black kids
The way he walks he gives himself away
Look at the way he talks, he gives himself away
And in the last stall a sophomore sang
Down the river we will float
Down the river we will float
Come bibble with the boo-shy lorry
And he smokes his Marlboro Reds
And hangs out with the skaters down in the park
Oh, I could never go down there
They'd beat me up
If I were cast I'd play the part
And if his body's smooth
Oh, can't I wonder if his body's smooth
I have your cassette on now
Was just talking to you in my mind
About the Electric Company
And about the spit in your mouth
And how I wanna spit in your mouth
And about Sam Manzie
And how he smashed the machine
And hugged a boy till he died
And on the bus
His windows wide
Our windows wide
