I’ve been hauling a lot of baggage lately, And they strike me as quite useless. It’s like how Patrick brought a suitcase full of rocks To the Krusty Tower just so that he’d have Something to bring to the hotel With a useless employee elevator. The things we carry around with us Are a lot like that—unnecessary Backbreakers that threaten to unhinge us. And days like this make me feel like Squidward: Stuffy nose, heavy suction cups for feet. Days like this make me want To sit down. Days like this make my food taste like they’ve All been covered in cheese, toenail clippings, And nose hair, which by the way reminds me— “We shall never deny a guest, “Even the most ridiculous request.” (Days like this only lasts an episode.) (Which is like, thirty minutes.) (So keep going.)
