paul gordon – things i didn’t know كلمات اغاني
[jerusha abbott]
dear daddy
did you ever hear of michelangelo?
he was a famous artist who lived in italy in the middle ages
the whole cl-ss laughed because i thought he was an archangel
doesn’t he sound like one?
even more embarr-ssing
somebody mentioned florence nightingale
and i asked if she was a freshman
that joke has gone all over college
you wouldn’t believe, daddy
what an abyss of ignorance my mind is
the things that most girls with a properly -ssorted family and friends and a library know by absorption
i’ve never even heard of
i didn’t know that henry viii was married more than once
or shelley was a poet
i didn’t know alexander the great had conquered most of greece
or people came from monkeys
i didn’t know that the garden of eden was all just a beautiful myth…
i never read great expectations
summer on the lake
euripides’ electra
i never met the two noble kinsmen
or ever came across the merry wives of windsor
i always feel like i’m alice in wonderland
stranded in vanity fair…
once upon a time
o captain! my captain!
i’m so many years behind
i’m still so many years behind
[jervis pendleton]
i didn’t know that she’d be so clever!
i never dreamed of such imagination
i never read thoughts so expressive!
i really must abstain
well, maybe one more letter…
what am i thinking? i’m missing appointments
to read what she studied in french
i’m baffled and perplexed
o captain! my captain!
i really must get back to work
i wonder what she’ll write me next…
[jerusha abbott]
i never heard of meg, jo, beth or amy
i’d never been to dover beach
or heard the phrase
a man’s reach should exceed his grasp
i feel like the idiot
or the toilers of the sea
o captain! my captain!
all the world is verse to me
a lady with a lamp i see…
now, daddy, i must sleep
but i will think of you
for, daddy, i know there is so much catching up to do
