brooklyn boys
brooklyn boys in wifebeaters
who smell like ivory soap
and talk like their dads
go to jersey in the summer to meet girls from the shore
who smell like irish spring
and live on the water
but pronounce it all wrong;
but you came here and complained about the turnpike
(which is a damn good road)
and smelled like cheap cologne
as if ivory soap was not enough
