I got an invitation mama poked it under my door
|
This castle's my fortress these four walls
|
|
Seems we been invited
|
To justify the things we've done
|
Been invited to my high school reunion
|
|
And I walked through the door there's Sarah
|
She still wears her smile like a party invitation
|
She's just older and sadder
|
She carries suitcases under her eyes
|
|
I'm standing empty handed
|
Have grown or did I slide?
|
Childhood's such a great time
|
Shame to waste it on a child
|
|
And I stare at the door Mr Baker he died
|
The man I cursed he was my history teacher
|
Right now I'd like to ask him his middle name
|
And the names of his children
|
Mr Baker I'm a history teacher
|
|
I stand face to face with you
|
You're my enemy my maitre de
|
You buried in my head
|
And coloured all the things I've said
|
But its time to take your head
|
And never settle down to running around
|
Rejection, rejection
|
I bind your name I bind your name
|
|
So I took my invitation
|
And the freedom that I'd won
|
And I headed from high school reunion
|
