2011, WaPo said Foo Fighters gave us an anthem,
not that we ever listened to the Foos, anyway
My sweet Virginia, I'm the same as I was in your arms
No mention of St. Rita's, with all its bells and smells
No mention of the Waffle Shop with just one 'f'
No mention of that crook of Edison Street straight out of WWII
Or the Four Mile Run farmers market that accepts SNAP
No Arlandria I know, no, no, no
not that we ever listened to the Foos, anyway
My sweet Virginia, I'm the same as I was in your arms
No mention of St. Rita's, with all its bells and smells
No mention of the Waffle Shop with just one 'f'
No mention of that crook of Edison Street straight out of WWII
Or the Four Mile Run farmers market that accepts SNAP
No Arlandria I know, no, no, no
