The I got nothin' jive

I have no funny stories
No good ones to tell
The muse is on vacation
Dad blam her to hell

And so I sit intently
Staring at the screen
Pondering what I've done
And thinking of where I've been

Since yesterday I assure you
Little has come to pass
A little of this and a little of that
And a lot of sitting on my ass

The next two days are scary
Much have I to do
Places to go and people to see
And hopefully something new

Today I feel kinda geeky
Hence the corny rhyme
I do hope you'll forgive me
And come back another time.

Chorus

I got nothin'
I got nothin'
I got nothin' so I'm singing this song to you.

    Even when you hit a brick wall, you're still lucid enough to put words together that never fail to entertain us.

    Take care!

  7. You're really somethin'... even when you've got nothin'. That wasn't meant to rhyme; it was meant as a compliment.

    Mark :-)
