Jonathan's Book lyrics

Jonathan lives all on his own He can't have distraction in the home He stays locked in most days and nights Trying to create while the neighbours fight He says, I don't have any inspiration And my subject matter lacks invention Jonathan's writing a book you see It's gonna be a masterpiece, a feat He doesn't have a title or a plot But he knows what's good and he knows what's not He says, I don't have any inspiration And my subject matter lacks invention If I only had an opening line Well I'm sure the rest would turn out fine He's planning on at least a thousand pages It has to be a story for the ages But from War & Peace to How To Cook There's not much left for Jonathan's Book He says, I don't have any inspiration And my subject matter lacks invention If I only had an opening line Well I'm sure the rest would turn out fine
