lyrics

Virginia shocked us throwing stones in desperation / it was like we didn’t know you anymore / you kept your glasses in a box when I first met you and you asked me if I’d ever bombed before / soon enough you’d taken spray paint to the school yard in the quiet of the car the evening loomed / at the most it was an esoteric moment at the least I should have known that I was doomed

It’s not explained it’s Delaware / and it’s enough to make your friends think that I’m smug but I don’t care

It’s not explained it’s Delaware / Disco Caesar Rodney shouting turn it up and turn it up / but no / don’t don’t

Before you asked if you could color me for Wednesday I’d have never thought you’d ever look my way / a different tone / a different trend / a different look / a different week / a different boy / a different day

It’s not explained it’s Delaware / and it’s enough to make your friends think that I’m smug but I don’t care

It’s not explained it’s Delaware / Disco Caesar Rodney shouting turn it up and turn it up / but no / don’t don’t

Deeply droll and mostly raised on false assumptions in a fossil mix of punk and lemonade / you wore the socks but you were still less optimistic and eventually the easy days would fade / I hadn’t noticed all the records you’d been playing except for Nervous Twitch “You Met Somebody Else” / that’s when Rehoboth caught me squarely on the shoulder it’s the fickle heart that almost always melts

It’s not explained it’s Delaware / and it’s enough to make your friends think that I’m smug but I don’t care

It’s not explained it’s Delaware / Disco Caesar Rodney shouting turn it up and turn it up / but no / don’t don’t

Pratt tie / rinse dye / with eyes on Bedford Stuy / we don’t recognize Virginia
Hearts cling / hips swing / ill-at-ease we sing / we don’t recognize Virginia

A charming invitation in a hold me tight creation years ago
