Ithaca by Ruth Roland
I live in Ithaca, that's where I call home.
Once I find a place to park my car I'll never walk alone
I live in Ithaca, that's where I belong
There are lots of quirky citizens to help me sing my song
It doesn't matter what the poets say - the skies are gray, not blue
It only makes the landscape more beautiful
Some people say it's always overcast, but that's just not quite true
It's sunny every other Tuesday one o'clock to two
Deep with snow the hill next to my house shines bright with sun's good rays
Driving up in winter time can make me crazy
We'll eat a ton of avocados to get us through cold days
Sing a song of Ithaca and pray for more enlightened days.
I live in Ithaca, that's where I buy flowers
With a charming local currency called Ithaca HOURs
I live in Ithaca, that's where I will stay
There are groups performing Shakespeare almost every summer day
It's where the corner store sells tofu kan and dried adzuki beans (If you want more choices, go to GreenStar)
And the first Monday of the month the Vegetarian Supper Club convenes
The entire population knows what “vegan” means
So let's all don our Angelheart and dine at a cafe
We could eat at Juna's or at ABC
We'll take a stroll down to the Ithaca Fest and watch the parade
We’ll be in time to see the Volvo ballet
(The Birkenstock Brigade - The Chainsaw Band, The Daughters of Sweden, The International Association of Leisurely Persons and Cayuga Lake)
