I Went to School in Very Cold Places
I went to school in very cold places,
places like Schenectady and Chicago.
Chicago, Illinois --that Chicago.
Chicago is also in Guatemala and Mexico,
--Mexico, the country, not the city.
The city in Illinois is not little.
Little Chicago is in Minnesota.
Minnesota has many communities,
communities unincorporated and cold,
cold like Chicago, IL and Schenectady.
Schenectady, also like Chicago, is very,
very hot in summer. So is Minnesota.
Minnesota, too, has many schools,
schools I did not happen to attend.
