"In the Army Kid" - Of Montreal

Our innocent protagonist is "riding to the station on the bus" because he wants to pick out some library books. Jen, a librarian who's not his type and sounds like a bit of a cougar, always hunts his "butt." He can't ditch the situation because there are bills to pay - whatever that means.

This song is performed by Of Montreal and appears on the album Horse & Elephant Eatery (No Elephants Allowed): The Singles And Songles Album (1997).

Riding to the station on the bus
Cause I wanna pick out some books
But Jen, she's a librarian
and she hunts my butt to this day
Usually the bills make me stay
the night at banks so...

Sorry but you're just not my type
You know I'll walk you home anyway
Did you know I had a funny dream
and in it I was in the army

Riding to the station on the bus
Cause I wanna pick out some books
But Jen, she's a librarian
So it's time to get down, spin on the ground
And say I wanna turn the daytime into dusk
If you're very tired we can simply retire
and say I wanna turn the nighttime into day

Sorry but you're just not my type
You know I'll walk you home anyway
Did you know I had a funny dream
and in it I was in the army
