I Can't Hear Myself Think!

by Mark Rawlins   Oct 16, 2015


Dribble, drabble, mindless babble.
Background noise, annoys, annoys.
Music blaring, no-one caring.
I can't hear myself think!

All we hear is goo goo, ga ga.
In our home or in our new car.
Radio goes on, blah blah blah.
I can't hear myself think!

News is bad. It's very sad.
The weather's rain. The world's insane.
Thumpin', bumpin', joint is jumpin'.
I can't hear myself think!

Miley, Kylie, Carol Smilie,
The new phenomen Eminem,
Jay Zee Zee Tops, BBC flops.
I can't hear myself think!

Who is in and who is out.
Love me Do, or Twist and Shout?
Funny, funny, laughing out.
I can't hear myself think!

No Elvis, Beatles, Rolling Stones.
No quivers in my old thigh bones.
No Jessie J or Tommy Jones.
I can't hear myself think!

It's on all night, they're talking shite.
It shrinks the brain, just like a drain.
Cheery, beery, dreary, weary.
They tell me what to think!
