Dr. Sexson, regent professor at Montana State University and the master of 
ceremonies for the 2012 Chautauqua in Bozeman, thought we MOQers might be 
amused by "Idaho", a song by Nerina Pallot. Sent by way of Tina Deweese, one of 
the Chautauqua organizers and the daughter of Bob and Gennie Deweese. (I love 
literate song writers.)

Here are the full lyrics of "Idaho":   
In the back of a car on a road in the darkIn the stillicide, silently falling 
snowI've packed everything that I own in a bagAnd I'm driving, I'm driving to 
Idaho
A poem for leaving, a reason to goSo I'm driving, I'm driving to Idaho
'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but meAnd I can't keep dreaming that 
I'm free, dreaming that I'm freeI don't want to fall asleep and watch my life 
from fifty feetMy hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho'Cause I hear 
it's mighty pretty
And oh, I've been dumb, I've been perfectly beautifulLain on my back buying 
lovers with stealthBut I'm sick of you all and I'm sick of opinionsAnd I'm sick 
of this war I wage on myself
And I don't know why I'm so gripped to go thereA universe riddle that only I 
knowMr. Robert he says, "It's all in the headTell me, Phaedrus, what's good, is 
it Idaho?”
'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but meAnd I can't keep dreaming that 
I'm free, dreaming that I'm freeI don't want to fall asleep and watch my life 
from fifty feetMy hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho'Cause I hear 
it's mighty pretty, 'cause I hear it's mighty pretty
'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but meAnd I can't keep dreaming that 
I'm free, dreaming that I'm freeI don't want to fall asleep and watch my life 
from fifty feetMy hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho
I don't want to fall asleep and watch my life from fifty feetMy hands are on 
the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho'Cause I hear it's mighty pretty in Idaho
