Librarian Lyrics - Evil Urges - My Morning Jacket

Walk across the courtyard towards the library 

I can hear the insects buzz and the leaves 'neath my feet 

Ramble up the stairwell into the hall of books 

Since we got the inter web these hardly get used 

Duck into the men's room, combing through my hair 

When God gave us mirrors He had no idea 

Looking for a lesson in the periodicals 

There I spy you listening to the AM radio 

Karen of the Carpenters, singing in the rain 

Another lovely victim of the mirror's evil way 

It's not like you're not trying with a pencil in your hair 

To defy the beauty the good Lord put in there 

Simple little bookworm buried underneath is the sexiest librarian 

Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me 

So I watch you through the bookcase imaging a scene 

You and I at dinner, spending time, then to sleep 

And what then would I say to you lying there in bed? 

These words with a kiss I would plant in your head 

What is it inside our heads that makes us do the opposite 

Makes us do the opposite of what's right for us? 

'Cause everything'd be great and everything'd be good 

If everybody gave like everybody could 

Sweetest little bookworm hidden underneath is the sexiest librarian 

Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me 

Take off those glasses and let down your hair for me 

Simple little beauty, heaven in your breath 

Simplest of pleasures, the world at it's best
