Woorden: Sufjan Stevens. Illinois. Prairie Fire That Wanders About.

Peoria, destroyia
Infinity, divinity

For Lydia, Octavia
And Jack-of-Trades
The Cubs, hooray

The Opera House
Where Emma sang
America, oh will it play?

And Santa Clause
The Great Parade
Peoria
You have it made

Into the crossfire, faithfully run
Middle America, one on one
Peoria
We saddle the fun times
