Keep Shelly In Athens
Livin’
When you see the
Way the boys treat her in the locker room
You wanna punch their livin' day light down
But you hold back again
And you regret again
Coz love is not a thing, that comes so easily
You hide behind the door as the boys leave
And watch her crying down on her knees
You think of sneaking out
But that is copping out
Breathe out, breath in, this should come easily
Has she heard me? Has she seen me? Come in?
When she turns her
Head around and sees me staring at her tattered hair
She wipеs her tears away and shoots me a worriеd glare
"What are you doing here?
I thought you were a queer
This ain't a place to be, hanging round with me."
"If they come back I'll knock them down
Or they can chase me way back home
Coz I ain't gonna watch
Them try to bully you
No way, no way, I'm gonna protect you."
