I said baby
I’ve got a ticket
I’m going to teach you
I’m going to treat you
I’ve got a ticket got a ticket got a ticket got a ticket for you
I’ve got a ticket got a ticket got a ticket and I hope you know what to do
Cause he likes boys and he don’t even know it
And she likes girls and she don’t even know it
He don’t like girls and boy he don’t show it
Cause he likes boys and girl you really blew it
I was hoping this was just a phase
I was hoping they would come and just look the other way
And I know I know I know it’ll never be the same
Cause those cigarettes and lies, we were out of phase.
But baby
Come to me
Come with me
And come near me
I’ve got a ticket got a ticket got a ticket got a ticket for you
I’ve got a ticket got a ticket got a ticket and I hop you know what to do
Cause he likes boys and he don’t even know it
And she likes girls and she don’t even know it
He don’t like girls and boy he don’t show it
Cause he likes boys and girl you really blew it
I was hoping this was just a phase
I was hoping they would come and just look the other way
And I know I know I know it’ll never be the same
Cause those cigarettes and lies, it was just a shame
But oh it’s over now
And we’ll never ever know how
But it’s over now
And we’ll never ever ever know the joys, or the toys or the boys
That they promised to us
That they promised to us
That they promised to us

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
