b>Judy:
And it was the first time I'd ever
Seen a dead body
But then when I was fifteen
The most terrible thing happened
The ted mack amateur hour held auditions in st. Louis
And I didn't hear about it till after they'd gone
And I nearly killed myself
Nearly killed myself
I tried to walk in front of a speeding streetcar
And I remember noticing boys for the first time
Spoken: anyway, I remember practising kissing with leslie. She was my best girl friend. Did any of you ever practice kissing with another girl
So that when the time came you'd know how to?
No? Oh my god
Kristine:
Judy?
Judy:
Did you, girl?
Kristine:
Yeah. But just a couple of times
Sheila:
Oh, count me in
Judy:
Thank god!
Anyway, I do remember
Greg:
The worst thing in school was every time the teacher called on me
I'd be hard, I'd be hard
Really, I'd have to lean up against the desk like this. And the teacher would say:
"Stand up straight."
"I can't, I have a pain in my side."
"Stand up straight."
Or walking down the hall, you'd have to walk like this
With all your books staked up in front of you
Mike:
Yeah, I thought it was only me. I thought I was a sex maniac
Connie and Maggie:
You are!
Bobby:
I did too. I mean, it didn't go down for three years
Greg:
And the bus, the bus was the worst. I'd just look at a bus and
Bingo
And then there was the time I was making out in the back seat with sally ketchum. We were necking and I was feeling her boobs, and feeling her boobs and after about an hour or so she said
"Ooh! Don't you want to feel anything else?"
And I suddenly thought to myself: "no, I don't."
Zach:
Did that come as a surprise to you?
Greg:
Spoken:i guess, yeah. It was probably the first time I realised I was a homosexual and I got so depressed because I thought being gay meant being a bum all the rest of my life and I said:
"Gee, I'll never get to wear nice clothes..."
And I was really into clothes, I had this pair of powder blue and pink gabardine pants
Goodbye twelve
