The Decemberists - Valerie Plame lyrics
[The Decemberists - Valerie Plame lyrics]
Oh Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
Dear Valerie Plame
So they made a wreck of you
But give me the rest of you
And I'll give the world
But, you were just some silly girl
Taking in the sights of your empire's colony
So I took you into my confidence
Without a thought of consequence to my
Heart or to my mind
But Valerie Plame
If that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
La da da de da la da da de da
La da da de da la da da de da
Oh Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same from on high
Dear Valerie Plame
I'll look for that long exchange
Outside of the Bureau Change in Shanghai
But, I was just some stupid boy on a bus
When your nom de guerre was Codename Caroline
And so my Vespa became your chariot
From the Green Zone Marriott to
Be etched upon my mind but Valerie Plame
If that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
And when they flashed your
Picture 'cross the screen
How my heart seemed to leap out of me
And they attached a list of your identities
But the one you'll always be
Is Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
La da dahey hey Valerie Plame
I would just shout the same to the world
Dear Valerie Plame
So they made a wreck of you
But give me the rest of you
And I'll give the world
But, you were just some silly girl
Taking in the sights of your empire's colony
So I took you into my confidence
Without a thought of consequence to my
Heart or to my mind
But Valerie Plame
If that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
La da da de da la da da de da
La da da de da la da da de da
Oh Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same from on high
Dear Valerie Plame
I'll look for that long exchange
Outside of the Bureau Change in Shanghai
But, I was just some stupid boy on a bus
When your nom de guerre was Codename Caroline
And so my Vespa became your chariot
From the Green Zone Marriott to
Be etched upon my mind but Valerie Plame
If that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
And when they flashed your
Picture 'cross the screen
How my heart seemed to leap out of me
And they attached a list of your identities
But the one you'll always be
Is Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
La da dahey hey Valerie Plame
