Chapter And Verse

I got the dictionary in my hand 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
