"Nothing gets done

If you're uselessly exhausted


Drop the words, drop the thoughts

Drop what won't let you sleep


Ridiculous problems, fantastic ideas 

No one reads them, no one solves them, no one should


Buck up, suck up, **** up

Like the rest of the world

Who made their beds

And lie in them without complaining

Buck up, suck up, **** up

And stop your incessant whining


Take off your useless satin

Your useless lace

Put on the sturdy cotton

The practical polyester

And forget the distracting dreams

That you never expected were real

Until they were past waking to


Go to sleep

This is your life

And I'm not going to let you wake up."


Guess what?

I'm already awake.
