Ratboys - MCMXIV lyrics

February 3rd was planned
I had to be present to ride on a bus
I walked around Chicago for hours on end
Woke up to someone watching me
At Wabash and Grand

And nobody around me spoke a word
The entire afternoon nothing was said
Yet, I could enter into tourists' heads
With great effort I let them know
'The tower's up there'

I had no idea what to think about you
You have no idea how much I needed you
On this occasion it was so sad it was so sad

Makin' my way back home
Was bizarre to say the least
Because I wasn't alone
Louisville looked like a ruby that once shown
Her mouth
The fluid motion of a smile collapsing

I have no idea what to think about you
You have no idea how much I needed you
On this occasion it was so sad
On this occasion it was so sad

All I am is just a Ratboy
All I am is just a Ratboy
All I am is just a Ratboy
All I am is just a Ratboy
All I am is just a Ratboy

And the roads continue down
Actually down to the South, as it's known
I didn't see much of Nashville that day
But a Romanesque cathedral
Built in nineteen-fourteen

Okay, that's it
