Library Man's Lyrics

Earlier this weekend I had my Ipod on "Shuffle Mode" and this song came up. It's from Metallica's Reload album and it's called Low Man's Lyrics. It's an oldie but a goodie as we used to say as children. The lyrics were just depressing and inspirational enough for me to make it my Official Theme Song while studying for my Medical Microbiology Final.


The trash fire is warm
But nowhere safe from the storm
And I can't bear to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn

So as I write to you
Of what is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And you won't cry for this man
'Cause low man is due

Please forgive me

My eyes seek reality
My fingers feel for faith
Touch clean with a dirty hand
I touch the clean to the waste

After I thought about it for awhile I realized that it didn't quite fit me. So I decided to make my own version. It goes a little like this...


The Library is warm
But not from my Thyroid Storm
And I can't bear to see
What Beez has for Me
While I Study On The 3rd Floor

So as I write to you
Of what I Still Have To Do
Maybe you'll understand
And you won't laugh at this Mexitalimer
'Cause Ah Jota is due

Please Excuse Me....

My mind seeks what is itchy
My fingers scratch my A-noose
Touch my Mouth with a dirty hand
Enterobius on my Scotch-Tape
