Craig Cardiff - Story About Chicopee lyrics

I wanted to, to take her someplace special. I had no idea where I wanted to take her, I just didn't want to take her home. On the way, for driving, she said "Do you have a place in mind? We've been driving for about half an hour now" I said, "uh, yeah" We stopped at what pa**es for a ski hill in south-western Ontario Parked the Hyundai Pony and we walked up to the top of the observation deck, where everyone who had a friend who worked at a ski hill who got stoned all the time and watched the skiiers from it in the winter time But it was summer and so we practiced dancing on it and we cha-cha'd, and fox-trotted, and we waltzed, And he had his hand on her hip, and it felt like electricity And he said "Mild weather we're having" And she said "yeah, it's pretty mild for this time of year" And they danced into the night And it was velvet blue And he said "so, your dad's a pretty avid hunter, hey?" And she said "he doesn't own a gun at all" He said "Oh" Some kids came by They were getting high To this new band called Ben Folds... Five Getting stoned on the ski hill And they walked down and it was like electricity They drove home in his beat-up Hyundai Pony And he walked her to the door And said "I, I've, I've had a great time tonight. Pretty mild weather we're having, lately" And she said "I think it's ok for you to kiss me now" And so they kissed For a good, it must have been 15 minutes, it could have been an hour, he lost all track of time In the kiss, and then the stroke started He was having a stroke, he was sure it was a stroke The lights were going on and off and on and off and it was amazing And she pulled away and said "My dad is such an a**hole" He said "oh, I've had a great time. Let's do this again sometime soon" She said "I've had a pretty good time, too" He felt like he was floating 18 feet off the ground And he floated back to the Hyundai Pony And said goodnight and drove Listening to Ben Folds on the radio And singing this song
