Mr. Eliot the Clerk

Mr. Eliot the Clerk

A poet, a bank clerk
A prophet, a dork,
Speaking for a generation
Concerning it's degradation,
In so many ways
And for so many days,
Nine to five
Staying Alive,
Saying wanted so many
Wanted to say,
Working for bills
Like them, everyday,
Radical Square
English American
Prufrock Incarnate
Tennyson Modern,
If you can follow me
Then you will see,
That Mr. Eliot was
A poet and a bank clerk
A prophet and a dork.
