Luke Sital-Singh - Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard (originally by Paul Simon)

Mama pyjama rolled out of bed and
She ran to the police station
When the papa found out he began to shout
And he started the investigation
It's against the law, it was against the law
Oh what the mama saw, it was against the law

Then mama looked down and spit on the ground
Every time my name gets mentioned
The papa say, Oy, if I get that boy
I'm gonna stick him in
The house of detention

Well I'm on my way
I don't know where I'm goin'
I'm on my way
I'm takin' my time, but I don't know where
Goodbye to Rosie, the Queen of Corona
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard

Whoa, in a couple of days
They come and take me away
But the press let the story leak
And when the radical priest come
To get me released
We was all on the cover of Newsweek

And I'm on my way
I don't know where I'm goin'
I'm on my way
I'm takin' my time but I don't know where
Goodbye to Rosie, the Queen of Corona
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
