Lyrics

0:17Oh I'm in love with the janitor's boy

0:25And the janitor's boy loves me;

0:33Oh I'm in love with the janitor's boy

0:41And the janitor's boy loves me;

0:50He's going to hunt for a desert isle

0:54In our geography

0:58A desert isle with spicy trees

1:03Somewhere near Sheepshead Bay;

1:07A right nice place just fit for two

1:11Where we can live alway

1:16Oh I'm in love with the janitor's boy

1:24And the janitor's boy he's busy as he can be;

1:33And down in the cellar he's making a raft

1:37Out of an old settee

1:41He'll carry me off I know that he will

1:46For his hair is exceedingly red;

1:50And the only thing that occurs to me

1:54Is to dutifully shiver in bed

1:58The day that we sail I shall leave this brief note

2:02For my parents I hate to annoy:

2:06"I have flown away to an isle in the bay

2:10With the janitor's red-haired boy "

Oh I'm in love with the janitor's boy
And the janitor's boy loves me;
Oh I'm in love with the janitor's boy
And the janitor's boy loves me;
He's going to hunt for a desert isle
In our geography
A desert isle with spicy trees
Somewhere near Sheepshead Bay;
A right nice place  just fit for two
Where we can live alway
Oh I'm in love with the janitor's boy
And the janitor's boy he's busy as he can be;
And down in the cellar he's making a raft
Out of an old settee
He'll carry me off  I know that he will
For his hair is exceedingly red;
And the only thing that occurs to me
Is to dutifully shiver in bed
The day that we sail  I shall leave this brief note
For my parents I hate to annoy:
"I have flown away to an isle in the bay
With the janitor's red-haired boy "
