It's faster to walk
Than take the bus
And you'll end up
With an extra 2 bucks
She Knows
If it's warm in the morning
But the cloud creeps low
It's sure to rain
And will probably blow
She Knows
If you're hungry and it's late
Where's a good place
That has a nice taste
At an average rate
She Knows
Where the stereotypes go
Their haunts
And their holes
Nerds, Emos, Jocks and Hoes
She Knows
Though shops close at 5
The keepers will glare
If the clock reads 4 forty
And you're anywhere near
She Knows
Without your uniform
The badge of youth
You're downgraded to adult
No one cares for the truth
She Knows
It's cold and frosty
For a third of the year
So you'll turn bright red
When the sun does appear
She Knows
The people aren't as nice
As you'd like to believe
They say that they are
But just ask those who leave
She Knows
The suburbs in order
From class and wealth
To those who struggle
To buy food off the shelf
She Knows
The best route
And the time it'll take
Through alleyways and parks
Ensures you're not late
She Knows
Students provide jobs
They spend all their money
Light couches on fire
Drink booze and study
She Knows
If you're off to shop
There's always parks to be found
Head up Constitution
Two minutes from town
She Knows
You'll certainly get
Your exercise fill
Climbing up and down
Endless hill after hill
She Knows
All the secrets
This young town's tale
The story beginning
With Captain Cook's sails
