To begin with, I don’t know
Why this hasn’t been done before;
Perhaps this topic is just so
Difficult to master that your
Previous teachers lacked the focus
To properly present the matter to us.

In any case, I can’t be blamed
If you fail to understand;
I, for one, will not be shamed
If you find my words too bland;
For a lack of glitter, truth be told,
Is not in my case a lack of gold.

Now if it seems I’ve left loose ends
You can’t figure my conclusion
I think that we can still be friends;
You’ll learn to love my smart illusion -
You only came for words, words, words,
And hard work, baby, is for the birds.
