[HIS SWEETHEART]
My high school sweetheart is a person too
I tell him he's a person
He says I'm just ridi*k-a-lous
My high school sweetheart is a too ridi*k-a-lous sweetheart

Who's a person, too
He's a person

Three ships
Three ships; the number three being important in its war mythology
Coronado stopped looking for the three cities of gold after-
For the seven cities of gold, after the three cities
He said: 'After three cities and no gold I'm beginning to suspect...uhh...
I mean, I mean most of my men dead. I-I forget
I mean, I mean, I mean...
Most of my men dead. Or, uh, or sneezing.’

Columbus' last words were, uhh: 'I only wish I could've discovered Europe'
Which, uhh, which brings me, my study of Columbus to a fitting end. Thank you
