that dog - minneapolis

i was at the jabberjaw
cutest boy i ever saw
he was standing behind me
he was such a dream.
he kept looking right my way
i wanna see him every day
randy told me where he lives
in minneapolis
 
hung around till closing time
i wanna make him mine all mine
told my friends i want to leave
but they embarrassed me
 
i took out my keys for my car
walked down the street--not very far
he came running after me
he saw me at the entry
 
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneapolis
minneap...
 
he said, "i heard you ask about me"
and i responded "yes" quietly
he said, "i'm leaving on wednesday
come see me when Low plays"
 
so i went to see him again
he should be my new best friend
running so romantically
down the street for me.
 
so he said he'd write or call
cuz i'd be touring in the fall
he said he wanted me to move
but that just won't do
to minneapolis
 
we are starting to get wayyy better. back in the day, we'd all try to row and the boat would tip all over the place, oars hitting each other, people catching crabs left and right, everyone panicing and trying to not fall out, let alone focus on rowing. now we're all feathering and moving in synch... the only problem is conner being the coxswain. the kid's cool and all, and yeah he's small enough for it, but he's just not very good at it.
i burned this awesome cd last night, full of pumped-up feel good music. and of course now i'm addicted to burning cd's. now i know why so many people do it!
