When I was about seven years old, I suggested to my Sunday School teacher that we could sing Mrs. Robinson when she asked if anyone had any special requests. She stammered and said that she wasn't familiar with the song so I stood up and sang a little of it, singing extra loud when I got to the part about heaven holding a place for those who pray and Jesus loving her more than she could know.
Whoa whoa whoa.
Did you know that it is said that the song was originally about Eleanor Roosevelt, but the guy in charge of The Graduate had Paul Simon change the lyrics to fit the film? It kinda makes more sense if you think of it that way.
I heart Paul Simon more than anyone my age ever should.

As someone who has taught Sunday School, I have to say that that would have been a great experience... it would have made my week.
