I am "REALLY" busy

Everyday I walk by Obama devotees at UNLV. They stand in the hot sun registering people to vote.

I want to bake them cookies to show my sincere "thanks" for all their hard work.

"So why don't you help Camila?"

I am busy, I have three tests and paper due next week and blah blah blah blah blah.

That is a bad response(s). All those individuals are students, they're busy too. (I hate it when people tell people protesting, "Don't you have anything better to do." Protesters and volunteers are busy people too. So stop being an asshole.)

Am I sad
not sad enough really
am I mad
not mad enough clearly
am I
complacent
completely
lacking in sincerity
yes indeed I am
am I tough
not tough enough really
am I rough
not rough enough nearly
am I lying here
on the ground
watching you get pushed around
yes indeed I am
really
I don't know why
I'm such a wimp
I realize
I'm just your pimp
but what can I do
what can I do

am I small
not small enough really
I feel lame and circumspect
I feel your pain and yet
I feel sympathy
empathy
it's just that I'm super busy right now
really

I don't know why
I'm such a shit
I realize
this doesn't help a bit
but what can I do
what can I do

am I bad
not bad enough really
I feel angry and upset
I could write you a small check
look I wish you luck
and here's you're buck
it's just that I'm a yuppie fuck
yes indeed I am
really

I dislike it when people post lyrics on their blogs, oh well
