Sad Professor Lyrics

    If we're talking about love
    Then I have to tell you
    Dear readers, I'm not sure where I'm headed.
    I've gotten lost before.
    I've woke up stone drunk
    Face down in the floor.

    Late afternoon, the house is hot.
    I started, I jumped up.
    Everyone hates a bore.
    Everybody hates a drunk.

    This may be a lit invention
    Professors muddled in their intent
    To try to rope in followers
    To float their malcontent.
    As for this reader,
    I'm already spent.

    Late afternoon, the house is hot.
    I started, I jumped up.
    Everyone hates a sad professor.
    I hate where I wound up.

    Dear readers, my apologies.
    I'm drifting in and out of sleep.
    Long silence presents the tragedies
    Of love. Not the age. Get afraid.
    The surface hazy with attendant thoughts.
    A lazy eye metaphor on the rock.

    Late afternoon, the house is hot.
    I started, I jumped up.
    Everyone hates a bore.
    Everybody hates a drunk.
    Everyone hates a sad professor.
    I hate where I wound up.
    I hate where I wound up.
