"Spitball in the Eye"

I knew something was impending, it was just about to happen

I knew some event was imminent when I crawled out of bed today

The school bus was cacophonous with lots of noise and dissonance

It was a frantic and frenetic mess, that's when you turned my way

If I were social and gregarious, I would have said, "Hello

Who are you? Where on earth did you come from?

And where do you want to go?"

You hit me like a spitball in the eye

A spitball in the eye

That's not facetious, I'm not joking

I felt like I could cry

Like getting hit with a spitball in the eye

I could not hide my chagrin, I was embarrassed and abashed around you

I thought for sure I was too demure, too modest and reserved

Insipid, boring morning chatter echoed all around

I had to concentrate, to cogitate and try to work up my nerve

You might think I was obsequious, fawning over you

But you would never know I was alive if I didn't make a move.

You hit me like a spitball in the eye

A spitball in the eye

That's not facetious, I'm not joking

I felt like I could cry

Like getting hit with a spitball in the eye

And I have been beguiled

Yes, I've been tricked before

And it was so baneful

Too deadly to ignore

If I were more stolid

If I didn't show emotion

If I were more stoic

Wouldn't feel all this commotion

You were so tangible, so palpable, you seemed to be so touchable

It was all chaotic, but I was so quixotic, I was such a romantic fool

I looked around for some redress, some remedy for my distress

But then I realized to my surprise that we were already at the school

If I had summoned all my strength, called it forth for you

Who knows where we would be right now or what our love could do

You hit me like a spitball in the eye

A spitball in the eye

That's no facetious, I'm not joking

I felt like I could cry

Like getting hit with a spitball in the eye.
