Muse Blues

I went down to the library, you know
 The big one way downtown
 I went down to the library
 You know the big one way downtown
 I pulled out my spiral notebook
 And my Scripto pencil
 These are the words
 I did put down
 I'm a dud firecracker, I ain't got any fuse
 I ain't got no inspiration since I lost my muse
 I'm a table with two legs, I'm a spider with five
 I'm going down, slow muse, when will you arrive?
 Oh muse, where are you?
 Oh muse, where are you?
 You know I eat, drink and I smoke stuff
 I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do
 Went to the mountain and the desert too
 I was there, ladies, so where were you?
 I'm a flattened out wave, I ain't got any curl
 I'm an empty old oyster, I ain't got any pearl
 Muse, where are you?
 Oh muse, where are you?
 You know I eat, drink and I smoke stuff
 I don't know what to do
 Sit up late, stay up, wait
 That's a rule of thumb, she's got to come
 Sit up late, stay up, wait
 I take lots of cold showers and I go for long walks
 I wait for a pitch but the fickle bitch barks
 Took a shot of whiskey and a snort of cocaine
 Opened up my head and stuck electrodes in my brain
 Oh muse, where are you?
 Oh muse, where are you?
 Yeah, I eat, drink and I smoke stuff
 Eat, drink and I smoke stuff
 Eat, drink and I smoke stuff
 I don't know what to do
