Robbie Fulks - Beautiful Books (Beautiful Girls)

Robbie, Donna & Lisa Crowe doing a re-make of Sean Kingston's "Beautiful Girls", which is a re-make of "Stand By Me". (11-29-2007). Also check out the "Chicken Song".

Here are the lyrics as best as I can make them out...

See all these beautiful books
That's why I can never work
I'm browsing through the titles, through the titles
When the day is over

Dang all these beautiful books
They only make my eyeballs hurt
They've got me google eyed, all google eyed
When the day is over

See it started in the ITC back in grade three
oh, William Steig's art, it captured my heart
So I checked out Shrek
not expecting it'd be habit forming

But then I went from Shrek right to Richard Peck
Oh these books I consumed, then into Judy Blume
And soon I was reading Al Gore on global warming

See it's very insane, all these entries I've gained
Have pumped up my brain, my back is in pain
Oh Lord, these books are driving me crazy

See all these beautiful books
Their authors need to be experts
I'm browsing through the titles, through the titles
When the day is over

Dang all these beautiful books
They're dishing every kind of dirt
They've got me google eyed, all google eyed
When the day is over

See it was back in DePaul in the 5th grade hall
I did a shameful crime at recess time
I snuck off to read
When I should have been playing soccer

I was on chapter ten of Huckleberry Finn
I just had to know where that rat would go
And when the class came in
I stuffed it back into my locker

See it gets me enraged that a kid of my age
Should be trapped in a cage of the printed page
Oh Lord, these books are driving me crazy

See all these beautiful books
They've got my mind on high alert
I'm browsing through the titles, through the titles
When the day is over

Dang all these beautiful books
They're making me an introvert
I'm going google eyed, I'm going google eyed
When the day is over

I was walking home from school, my nose in a book
I crossed Sherwood Road, I didn't even look
Now I'm hospitalized until my arms are mended

And the last book I borrowed from the ITC
Is now a month overdue, oh woe is me
Mr. Jauch just called to tell me I'm suspended

See all these beautiful books
That's why I can never work
I'm browsing through the titles, through the titles
When the day is over

Dang all these beautiful books
They're making me an introvert
They've got me google eyed, all google eyed
When the day is over

They've got me google eyed, all google eyed
When the day is over
