If You Live in Broward Hall

If you live in Broward Hall
You've probably slept with JJ
Because everyone in Broward Hall
Has slept with JJ

Boys, girls, doesn't matter

You've slept with JJ
If you live in Broward Hall

You've gotten pizza
From Toro de Toro

(Bull of Bull? Yeah, nobody knows)

At three o'clock in the morning
On a Tuesday night
With the cheese on the side

(Yup, on the side)

If you live in Broward Hall

You've gotten hit with a water balloon
Upon leaving your room at noon
On a Sunday morning

And the water was probably mixed
With green food coloring
And glitter

If you live in Broward Hall

You own a blanket big enough
To touch every wall in your room
For those winter nights
When the heat doesn't kick in

And a fan that could be used
As a propeller
On a swamp boat
For those late spring months
When you wake up sticking to your mattress
Forcing you to miss your first class

...And your second...

...And your third...

If you live in Broward Hall

You spend Friday nights
Getting high and drunk
In Corey's room
Because Corey is fucking the R.A.
And that means he can turn his room
Into a kingdom of vice
And not get written up

You'll discuss life
And what it means
And what you're going to do
Once you're out of school
And no longer living
At Broward Hall

But before then you'll get a nice two-bedroom apartment
With the friend you've had since freshman year
And you'll stop eating Toro de Toro pizza
And switch over to ramen and Subway
And not have to share a bathroom with eight people
And not have to wear sandals in the shower
And not have to be woken up at 4am in February by a fire alarm
Because somebody left their cheese on the side on the radiator in the common room

And yet strangely enough
You'll miss it

The way you race out of being a teenager
Only to look back on it fondly

Remembering the days
Of giant fans
And friends
And Friday nights
Spent with harsh florescent room light
And white brick
And tricks played
On JJ while he slept
Those are the memories you kept

And that's just the way you live
If you live
In Broward Hall
