The Ivy Covered Walls - Harry Nilsson (哈利·尼尔森)[00:00:00]
Just behind the ivy covered walls[00:00:01]
We used to walk the Ivy leaguer walls[00:00:07]
We used to share an Ivy leaguer look[00:00:15]
But (we lost it with the chemicals that we took) [00:00:22]
Now the good books in the library look better every day[00:00:28]
And the dean and all his bribery took our faith in him away [00:00:36]
So we wandered through the garden by the ivy covered walls[00:00:47]
And we waited for the magic where the sleepy nighttime falls [00:00:55]
But the books we learned to love so much were very hard to read[00:01:03]
So we hunted for a light just a light was all we'd need [00:01:11]
Then we saw a glow not far away[00:01:21]
Just a stones throw you might say[00:01:25]
And we headed for the light we saw[00:01:28]
We knew would lead the way [00:01:32]
And the light shone through the window of a handsome hansel house[00:01:38]
And we peeked inside the window (quiet) as a mouse [00:01:45]
On the table near the fire was a book we all had read[00:01:55]
With a cover so familiar not another word was said [00:02:03]
So we threw away the chemicals and we strolled back through the night[00:02:11]
And we climbed the ivy covered walls (and the we said goodnight) that's right [00:02:18]
Now the next day we were back inside the crowded hallowed halls[00:02:27]
And one of us had scribbled something silly on the walls [00:02:35]
He never said he did it but it might have been us all[00:02:43]
It was the title of the book we'd seen he'd written on the wall [00:02:49]
A private joke to us perhaps - 'What's the title ' - you ask[00:03:00]
It was simply: 'Throw away those chemicals or '[00:03:09]
