about

Inspired by a particularly pugnacious librarian at the local branch library in Roxbury, NJ.

lyrics

Ms. Librarian

CHORUS:
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!

Ms. Librarian,
I just want to talk to you
But every time I try,
All I get is "shush, be quiet!"

Ms. Librarian,
I think my books are overdue
Is that the reason
I can't talk to you well maybe

I'm pushing my luck because I got a multitude of fines
I promise to get all my books back on time
Next time

CHORUS:
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!

Ms. Librarian,
Please tell me where I went wrong
Is it that I'm always here?
Or is it that I stay too long?

Ms. Librarian,
I guess my pleading just won't work
For a reaction
Without a dirty look well maybe

I'm pushing my luck because I got a multitude of fines
I promise to get all my books back on time
Next time

CHORUS:
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!

Ms. Librarian,
I see that sign you're pointing to
"In the library, please refrain from talking loudly"

I'm pushing my luck because I got a multitude of fines
I promise to get all my books back on time
Next time
I'll be quiet
Next time

CHORUS:
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!

The Telethons have existed in some form since 2004. They originally started as an antifolk-inspired duo in Flanders, NJ consisting of John Mulcahy (guitar/vocals) and Mark Deocampo (drums, yelling). After Deocampo's departure in 2009, the Telethons evolved into a power rock trio with the addition of John Van Atta (bass/vocals) and Doug Johnson (drums, yelling). ... more
