(Dedicated to all writers, and sung to a 12-bar blues progression)
Sittin’ here in Starbucks / Feelin’ mighty glum
Watching folks on laptops / Concentratin’ some
Lookin’ at their keyboards / Fingers flying fast
I’m gettin’ green with envy / And I need a coffee blast
Yea, thanks a Latte, Jesus! / I got the Writers-Block Blues
I’m feelin’ really sick now / My sleepless nights they grow
My doctor says this illness / Interrupts creative flow
There ain’t no vaccination / For inspiration lock
My vocabulary’s quarantined / And all I write is schlock!
My brain’s on anesthesia / I got the Writers Block Blues
Tag:
Got the Writers Block Blues / Got the Writers Block Blues
I’m one big error message / I got the Writers Block Blues!
