My girl says I should read more
When I have the time
I'll take it to devote my attention to just that
With slanted rhyme
A couple words and anecdotes
Prying the laughter from the grasp of my soul

Well maybe a good friend is like a great story
You can pick up right where you left off
But tell me where there is that kind of book
The book you can't put down

Am I the entertainment on the coffee table
The dusty novel by the bathroom sink
Or am I the witty update on your screen

Well maybe a good friend is like a great story
You can pick up right where you left off
But tell me where there is that kind of book
The book you can't put down
The book you can't put down

My girl says I should read more
But I like playing my guitar
