Artist/Band: Vic Chesnutt
Lyrics for Song: Band Camp
Lyrics for Album: Silver Lake [2003]



Well the first time I ever laid eyes on you


Was my first year at marching band camp


You never played the part as it was written


You would always vamp





You was always cracking me up


Messing with the band director


Mocking the tuba parts


In your upper register





If I knew then what I know now





You shouldn't've even been talking to me


Just a lowly freshman


And you the undisputed queen of the senior class


Without question





Yet at the band hangout ruth's restaurant


We sat together in a corner booth


We got our burgers for free


Because you was kin to ruth





If I knew then what I know now





You always had a little something


Hidden in your instrument case


We would be practically making out


On the bus home from the way games





Once you soaked a tampon in some serious vodka


Wore it to school


Second period science lab


You fell right off your stool





If I knew then what I know now





I didn't go to your graduation


I just couldn't find the strength


And I had to throw my yearbook in the dumpster


Because it was haunting me





The very next time I ever laid eyes on you


It was practically christmas


You already looked like a whole different person


Just like much older sister





If I knew then what I know now





I still never, never, never would've


Seen that coming
