Sufjan Stevens - Illinois

Prairie Fire That Wanders About

Peoria! (Peoria!) Destroyer! (Destroyer!)
Infinity! (Infinity!) Divinity! (Divinity!)

For Lydia! (For Lydia!) Octavia! (Octavia!)
And Jack-of-Trades! (And Jack-of-Trades!)
The cubs hooray! (The cubs hooray!)

The Opera house (the Opera house)
Where Emma sang! (Where Emma sang!)
America! (America!) Oh, will it play? (Oh, will it play?)

And Santa Claus! (Santa Claus!)
"The Great Parade"! ("The Great Parade"!)
Peoria! (Peoria!)
You have it made (you have it made)

Into the crossfire
Faithfully run
Middle America
One on one
Peoria
We saddle the fun times
