carson flannery & jerome line the bookshelves at home
waiting tables at some cafe to pay my student loans
if they didn't make me sneeze i'd get a cat & name her eloise
it'd be someone to talk to in the least

a listless intellectual in her prime
scrabble high score 409
with nothing remarkable to leave behind

smoking lights working nights
& frequent trips to the public library
don't make much of a life
but it's all going to change
maybe tonight
i'm leaving something to remember me by

a listless intellectual in her prime
scrabble high score 409
& the note on the bed
true love is hard to find
