Stephen Koritta - Bluestocking

Hey, bluestocking, say, could you go walking
Here with me now to the brow of the hill
To the crown of the town where the chatter is drowned
By a matter profound as you will
Away from the fray, high above them we'll stay
As the things that you said just went over their heads, anyway

Hey, bluestocking
Say, could we go walking today?

Hey, bluestocking, I sway to your talking
A couplet heroic as any I've heard
For rich or for poor. For worse or for better
A woman of letters to a man of few words
I can't comprehend you, though, fast, I intend to
So clasp, as you stand, to the hand I extend you, I pray

Hey, bluestocking
Could we go walking today?

Nodding off with a copy of Chaucer
Wake you up to a cup with a saucer
If such is the best that I have to offer to you
Will you still say "I do"?

Hey, bluestocking don't say it's too shocking
To be dreamt in your philosophy
That a hardcover girl in a paperback world
Should be open to a comic like me
Fiction is strange but the truth doesn't change
April is cruel to the September foolish, they say

Hey, bluestocking
Could we go walking today?
