I should be doing something else
Says the hive mind of our nation
Everyone's gotten trapped
In meaningless procrastination
I should be doing something else
Says the lonesome mind of the artist
Something that made me feel alive
And not a rat among the smartest —
Asses!
I need access to my newest account
Forgot the password and think I'll never find it out
I should be doing something else
Says the shadow in the mirror 'cross the room
'Fore it vanished altogether into tedious gloom
I should be doing something else
Says the tired teacher
I should be doing something else
Says the disappointed singer
I should be doing something else
Says the cleaner in the hall
We should be doing something else
Instead of killing us all...
For gold and happiness
I should be doing something else...
Instead of writing this ode to Procrastination
Or spitting on the corpse of our hated nation
I should be writing my goddamn thesis to
finally finish my post-graduation!
