Met a physics major at university
I was into her, and she was into me
We hit it off so well we agreed to a date
the beginning was so nice but
the ending not so great!
She was so cheery
talkin' 'bout
String theory, it
left me weary
cuz I didn't want
to talk about
science
She was so cheery
talkin' 'bout
String theory, it
left me weary
cuz I didn't want
to talk about
science
After our meal, she said
"let's go for a walk"
When I asked what for
she said, "I just want to talk"
While holding hands, walking
and gazing at the sky, my
romantic mood was ruined
and here's the reason why
She was so cheery
talkin' 'bout
String theory, it
left me weary
cuz I didn't want
to talk about
science
She was so cheery
talkin' 'bout
String theory, it
left me weary
cuz I didn't want
to talk about
science
Handwriting on the wall,
it didn't look too good
She asked me to rethink
my position if I could
I considered pros and cons
and I almost acquiesced
But then I realized why
our breakup would be best
She was so cheery
talkin' 'bout
String theory, it
left me weary
cuz I didn't want
to talk about
science
She was so cheery
talkin' 'bout
String theory, it
left me weary
cuz I didn't want
to talk about
science
String theory, left me weary, string theory
Sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh
science
String theory, left me weary, string theory
Sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh
science
(repeat and fade)

PoetryLyric poetry can be highly musical, and is usually the private expression of emotion by a single speaker. My lyric poetry consists of little scribbles and echoes of life.
