The half man half mattress
My Mum always got down
"You're so smart, Why don't you just study and do homework?"
I'm working from home and studying my craft
putting in more hours than I ever put in Geometry class
because proofs and circular dimensions
never made anybody else smile
and I hope these words have
so sorry Mum
but this half mattress lifestyle
is too appealing
and I know that granny never went to college
but she never lived to see the ink flow through me
so I promise that one day
I won't need to hit up mom n' pops
for some of that evil green paper
one day this half man half mattress
is going to be so huge
like a household name
so don't worry Mum
I'm skinny right now
but in no time
I'm going to be living a three square meals a day life
and today I don't have a job
and one day I won't need one
So don't worry Mum
It may look hard right now
but I'm having the time of my life
