text: So Im the first one in again
  With the quiet and the window growing snow
  When I hear the furnace rouse itself
  From its slumber, somehow suddenly I know
  As my eye stops on one curled up in my lesson plan
  That Im just your little ampersand
  When your voice springs from the intercom
  With announcements and reminders and a prayer
  I remember how you made me feel
  I was funny, I was thoughtful, I was rare
  But like the jokes about my figure
  Kids think I dont understand
  I know Im just your little ampersand
  After Christmas holiday you never asked to drive me home again
  Sometimes in the staff room, Id catch your eye with whyd it have to end
  But I know from how you worry at your wedding band
  That Im just your little ampersand
  The last conjunction after every other and
  I was just your little ampersand
