I often like to say That I love to write That it makes me gay But what I scarcely say Is how horrible I am at this trade And how awful it is to say All that I have to think On paper, with ink
You see, It's quite easy for me to see But I'm sure you saw it first Written in ink On this paper It stinks Awful badly And sadly I continue to write Until my thoughts are out of sight Horribly mangled Onto this paper That has been strangled By these words I try to write But never without spite For I envy all those men Who can spin words with their pen So easily and care free They make me quite angry Yet inspired by their being This is why I should stop It's really quite a sin That I continue to try To write with this pen
