Our Dirty Little Secrets

Steven Bowman 1997 (Voorhees Township, NJ)



Once they knew a secret,
They needed it so rudely.
When it came to a regret,
Thinking over it abruptly.

Hey you over on that hill,
Don't look at her like this.
Look for a guy named Bill,
Knowing all of my secrets.

Can't stay away from that,
All of our dirty little secrets.
I need to find his friend Pat,
It's a fact, he's all my regrets.

Jumping, he's like Air Jordan,
Sneaky little bastard, stealing.
Just it's a miscommunication,
He's not just this very worthy.
