Brentalfloss - Mr. Carey Christenberry lyrics

Mr. Carey Christenberry You talk like a lady and you're five feet tall You tried your very best to teach us all Thoreau, oh Mr. Carey Christenberry You told my mom at open house you loved my mind I wish I'd read more of the books you a**igned, ya know? Oh Would I be good at life and art, whoa oh oh oh oh If you hadn't told me I was smart And set me apart? Mr. Carey Christenberry, You go to church but dont believe a God exists You only do it cause your beautiful wife insists you go, We know Mr. Carey Christenberry, You could have had a column in a magazine But now your average reader is 17 or so, oh I wanted to be like you some day, oh oh oh oh oh Most of my friends thought you were gay What does that say? I guess I should have told you then Whoa oh oh oh oh Cause I wont get that chance again No oh oh oh oh You were weird, you were loud, you made me smile, you made me mad You're the best teacher I ever had So I hope you're listening Mr. Carey Christenberry You made us write a piece about what we'd learned I didnt quite get it all on the paper I turned in though, no Mr. Carey Christenberry You may as well have taught me how to tie my shoes Considering the frequency with which I use The stuff I learned watching you blow a fuse Mr. Carey Christenberry, Mr. Carey Christenberry I guess that's all I had to say I still wanna be like you some day Mr. Christenberry
