The Mind is a Wonderful Thing to Waste

The mind is a wonderful thing to waste
If you're naive or out of place

Feed it cigarettes and booze
Then feel it spin and watch it ooze

Stifle it from education
And watch it shrink into temptation

Spam it up with grotty things
Then audit all the wrong it brings

Oh, don't forget to leave it home
Abandoned from your fleeing dome

Leave it right there on the couch
Before the tube, there in a crouch

Right near the cheetohs and bread crumbs
Go on ahead, be a dumb dumb

If someone asks you where it's at
Just say it took off with your hat

Don't use it to decipher sense
It's just for hanging on the fence

You can bounce it like a basketball
Or use it just to play wall ball

Yeah, pop the hood and prop the lid
And mash it like a little squid

It's not for use, no don't be silly
Uh, someone left it there.. no really

Wow, Bryce, nice!
