The Girl At the Window

A box full of train tickets she saw With her mother at the station door She saw it belongs to the ticket man And wanted to be as so With a dream of a secret agent too Ding dong, the desk is awesome Open, Book out Close Open, Book in Close Open, Pencil out "Lid it is, not a drawer" she wondered The children learn the book But she leans and look Through the window to the virtuosos Enjoys them sing and dance Stays and stays or she'll miss the chance "What are you doing" "Where are you going" She cries through the window To the flying sparrow "She is terrible, Psycho, out of control Find a new school" The teacher lets her out Her mom finds a new school For the girl, she knew it will be cool A school in a train, is what she found Of Sosaku Kobayashi, the greatest one "Mom, new school is wonderful" She was amazed and truthful Chatted with Sosaku six hours No one ever listened so much "Something from ocean" "Something from land" It was and interesting lunch of crunch Once her little purse Fell to a toilet pit as a curse Dig the pit until she found More value was it that dozens of pound In the summer, perfect for a swim Cool to be in the pool No swimming suits were at all Girls and boys, naked no rules! One sided love to Tai-chan Dreamed of being his bride forever as the sun Seven years old girl was fallen in love Love is a sacrifice, she taught to bow A rejected girl from a school of nerds 'Tomo' made her a free bird Testsuko Kuroyanagi she is Who won the world, a role model
