It happened that green and crazy summer   It was a summer when for long time she'd not been a member   She belonged to no club and she was a member of nothing in the world   And she was afraid      She's by herself again in the quiet secret night   Below the neighbor's window   Hands in pockets, head on one side      And the radio plays an unknown song   That has nothing at all to do with God   But it's miles away from this sad town      And the stupid kids who get her down   Just wait until big Julie rules the world   Big Julie rules the world      Well, the radio still plays   Floating beyond time like the greatest people in the world   All springing up and feeling fine      And it's far away from these sweaty lads   Who say that boys cannot be slags   And if it's not them then it's their dads      Like the guy who felt her up in class   And Sunday school teacher   Who said she had beautiful breasts      And the local radio DJ who is so obviously obsessed   Yeah, form an orderly queue when big Julie rules the world   Big Julie rules the world      Yeah, go and chase your dreams   But if your dreams are not your own then wouldn't it be better   Just to work things out at home?      And she knows sex is just for dummies anyway   Something you do when you've run out of things to say   But this song will play until the light      It's the sound of her trying to find something to like   The sound of her walking day and night   And this song may lead her far away      But tonight it seems to light the way   And she can almost see the future shine   And every thing's in tune and every thing's in time      It will play until the day   Big Julie rules the world   Big Julie rules the world
