1997 Passing in the Hallway by Martha Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We met when we were seven
Now we're both in year eleven and it scares me that
You act like it's a joke
When they tell you off for smoking
It's tearing me apart
So I just drew your name inside a heart
[Chorus]
Maureen
School is totally boring
These GCSEs really get to me
I long for your company
And I think it's high time
We took a walk by the riverside
We can sit near the daffodils
While we've got some time to kill
It's true that I've been so anemic
Since you broke my double-helix and my heart
[Verse 2]
Well I might be a reject
But to tell the truth you're scarier than a prefect
When we're passing in the hallway
And you catch me looking your way
It's certifiably verified
That I'm completely terrified by Maureen…
[Chorus]
School is totally boring
These GCSEs really get to me
I long for your company
And I think it's high time
We took a walk by the riverside
We can sit near the daffodils
While we've got some time to kill
It's true that I've been so anemic
Since you broke my double-helix and my heart
[Verse 3]
I know you're in detention
But I promise that I'm worthy of your attention after school
There's a park across the street
I'd really love it if you'd meet me
We can share some pop while we revise
See algebra in each other's eyes
I promise you I'm worth the wait
This textbook's barely annotated
[Chorus]
School is totally boring
These GCSEs really get to me
I long for your company
It's high time
We took a walk by the riverside
We can sit near the daffodils
While we've got some time to kill
It's true that I've been so anemic
Since you broke my double-helix
And the doctor gave me pills
And I told her they were nervous in my heart
We met when we were seven
Now we're both in year eleven and it scares me that
You act like it's a joke
When they tell you off for smoking
It's tearing me apart
So I just drew your name inside a heart
[Chorus]
Maureen
School is totally boring

Since you broke my double-helix and my heart
