Valerie Plame

Colin Meloy

Oh Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
Dear Valerie Plame, so they made a wreck of you
But give me the rest of you and I'll give the world

But you were just some silly girl
Taking in the sights of your empire's colony
So I took you into my confidence
Without a thought of consequence to my heart or to my mind

But Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world

La da da de da
La da da de da
La da da de da
La da da de da

Oh Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same from on high
Dear Valerie Plame, I'll look for that long exchange
Outside of the Bureau Change in Shanghai

But I was just some stupid boy on a bus
When your nom de guerre was Codename Caroline
And so my Vespa became your chariot
From the Green Zone Marriott to be etched upon my mind

But Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world

And when they flashed your picture 'cross the screen
How my heart seemed to leap out of me
And they attached a list of your identities
But the one you'll always be

Is Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world
Valerie Plame, if that really is your name
I would just shout the same to the world

La da da..hey hey Valerie Plame (x3)
