[edit] Lyrics

{whispered}
Ok, here it comes. Stop it!

{singing}
Circles
She's spinnin' me around in circles... again
Oh that skinny blonde girl
Somethin' about the ages ({whispered} Stop it, stop it.)
I failed college algebra, again
Whoa that skinny blonde girl

{guitar, harmonica solo}

{whispered}
Why don't you stop it?
Cut it out, I'm soloing.
What? I hate you
Dude, I'm trying to tear it up!

{singing}
She took me to different places!
Like the university bookstore! ({whispered} I'm gonna ask you to leave.)
And the financial aid office!
I had to borrow her parking pass!
Workin' on the night staff!
At the computer lab! ({whispering} Wrong song!)
I totally found out her screen name!
Oh that skinny blonde girl!
And the circles and the ages and the ages!

{whispering} Dude, I told you not to bring that thing here.
{spoken} Beautiful!

GUITARIST: {laughing} Where am I? Is this song really in G?

[edit] Fun Facts

  • This song really is in G.
  • The line at the end is spoken to the harmonica player by the guitar player. This is, at least in part, because the harmonica being used is not in G, although it seems to be in a related key, possibly C or D.
