Not So Academic |
| I’m a rogue, saint and a scoundrel |
| I terminate at Bethnal Green |
| I’d shake hands with the devil |
| To get where I want to be |
| Because I feel my soul |
| Swell through my brain |
| And spit tears out my eyes |
| When I hit the refrain |
| And lately I just daydream |
| A social outcast in my tower |
| If only all men had the courage |
| They too could be cowards |
| They could feel their souls |
| Swell through their brains |
| And spit tears out their eyes |
| Again and again |
| When they hit the refrain |
| But mother I’m not so academic |
| I’m not so academic but I love |
| I’m a rogue, saint and a scoundrel |
| I spend my days on the echoing green |
| Come thunder frightening |
| Or dumb white lightning-flooded |
| Couldashouldawouldofbeens |
| Out of control |
| Out of sync |
| Everywhere but the bowl |
| Everywhere but the kitchen sink |
| Mother I’m not so academic |
| Mother I’m not so academic but I love |
