Vanderbilt Cup by Empty Pools Lyrics
He's got friends in high places
He's a scholar and a thoughtful boy
And who are you to say
He shouldn't wake up in the afternoon
And Maslow, I would argue
You got it all mixed up
Who places value on anything
But the big stuff
I never thought I would meet you
You seemed so distant, so down
But then that started to follow me around
I never wanted to know you
But I came along for the ride
What's your family name on the other side
Brought up in Floral Park, oh
But made for the city
Said it was good to come from 'cause it's good to leave
Though The Dark Is Rising
He is the bluest star
This is wartime, he's your Canada
I never thought I would meet you
You seemed so distant, so down
But then that started to follow me around
I never wanted to know you
But I came along for the ride
What's your family name on the other side
A sweet seed seller
Childs' flowers beds
Weren't home for long
Grateful for the old rooms
She can come back to
Says humans keep in mind, that's what we do
So at the Gates of Eden
Or final table felt
Never forget the thrill of Vanderbilt
I never thought I would meet you
You seemed so distant, so down
But then that started to follow me around
I never wanted to know you
But I came along for the ride
What's your family name on the other side
A sweet seed seller
Childs' flowers beds
Weren't home for long
A Jersey Witness
Wants to be destroyer
Not home for long
He's a scholar and a thoughtful boy
And who are you to say
He shouldn't wake up in the afternoon
And Maslow, I would argue
You got it all mixed up
Who places value on anything
But the big stuff
I never thought I would meet you
You seemed so distant, so down
But then that started to follow me around
I never wanted to know you
But I came along for the ride
What's your family name on the other side
Brought up in Floral Park, oh
But made for the city
Said it was good to come from 'cause it's good to leave
Though The Dark Is Rising
He is the bluest star
This is wartime, he's your Canada
I never thought I would meet you
You seemed so distant, so down
But then that started to follow me around
I never wanted to know you
But I came along for the ride
What's your family name on the other side
A sweet seed seller
Childs' flowers beds
Weren't home for long
Grateful for the old rooms
She can come back to
Says humans keep in mind, that's what we do
So at the Gates of Eden
Or final table felt
Never forget the thrill of Vanderbilt
I never thought I would meet you
You seemed so distant, so down
But then that started to follow me around
I never wanted to know you
But I came along for the ride
What's your family name on the other side
A sweet seed seller
Childs' flowers beds
Weren't home for long
A Jersey Witness
Wants to be destroyer
Not home for long
