"What's happened to his journal?
I'll tell you what's happened to his journal.
A story about a cephalopod guy gets involved with a threat to his world
Then he sacrifices everything to keep it from turning infernal
That's what happened to his journal.

Why not the daily news?
I'll tell you why not the daily news.
Stories about health care and cap and trade are still common
And covered by other folks with similar views
That's why not the daily news.

What's happening with a novel?
I'll tell you what's happening with a novel.
Guy writes all night after working all day
And sleep has been needed something awful.
That's what's happening with a novel.

The writing gig seems to have nipped him
And the LiveJournal's just another victim.

Yes sir!

When you see a dude
Acting all kinds of rude
You can bet that he's writing another book
When you spot short stories posted in the same vein
Chances are that his brain has followed a train and is under a strain

When you see him blank
There's just one thing to thank
He's had luck, and he's stuck and completely shook
Might be sad, could be funny
But it prob'ly won't make much money
Still the guy's gone off writing another book
