The Lyrics

One, two, three. . .more!

Well, I just hit 17,
Or was it a dream?
At the screen I looked
And hoped my muse was there.
I started to write yet another (gag!)
But my socks were on the chair.

They were quite smelly
And caked with jelly;
There must have been some
Parked inside my loafers.
I started to write yet another (gag!)
But my socks were on the chair.

Well, my clothes were strewn
All around the room
To find them I'd have to mine. . . .

No, my pants weren't in sight
And my shirt hung from the light,
There was peanut butter, too, in my loafers.
I started to write yet another (gag!)
But my socks were on the chair.

Well, my notes were strewn
All around the room.
Some lost lyrics were so fine.

No, my rants weren't in sight
I'm afraid that meant rewrite,
Which made me mad, 'cause I am such a loafer.
I ate jam and peanut butter
From my socks upon the chair.

Thanks, Stuart. Some I did in longhand--e.g., I wrote a couple in a soggy notebook while I was taking a bath.
