But I can't seem to find the word I'm looking for
 I've checked every letter, now I'm up to Z
 There just ain't anymore
 I've got a million choices in my head
 If I could only chose the one that says it best
I shelled out a quarter for a greeting card
 Now I can't seem to get my pen to do the rest

 But I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
 I'll quote you any part, every word
 But it's so deep inside it can't be heard

 I've got the Sunday paper in my hand
 And I've been working on the weekly cryptogram
 I know there's a message in between the lines
 That's the same way I am
 I got the crossword puzzle half complete
 But now I need another word four letters long
 It's just like the way I want a perfect fit
 I can settle for less but all of them are wrong

 There could be no jealousy over my poetry
 It's my weakest quality, no vocabulary
 I got the scrabble letters in a pile
 But there could never be enough to say it all
 I know you don't wanna hear the same old line
 So you'll just have the read the writing on the wall
