Glad I’m not a social climber; I’d tumble! My brain has a faulty drain Doesn’t seem to know which thoughts are germane If I could drop some data weight Would I have the space to keep things straight? When my curiosity is piqued I can hold my breath for hours, diving super deep into it What about if I just make one tweak? Then I make another, and another, always staying fluid Just a couple minutes ‘til I’m through (Spend my days) Sorry, didn’t set a timer; it’s been 22 already (Saying sorry, feeling starry) What was it that I was gonna do? (Focus strays) Glad I’m not a social climber; I’d tumble! (On safari) My brain has a faulty drain Doesn’t seem to know which stuff to retain When I was a little child Everybody thought that my memory was wild No chance I’d remember any plans, but I Learned the order of the Presidents from a trash can My mind has trouble keeping time But swimming in the brine it works just fine!
