[00:04.36] He's a miniature philosopher
[00:08.23] He stands five foot three
[00:10.13]
[00:12.18] So no one takes him seriously
[00:14.05]
[00:17.30] He's in love with Gertrude Lullaby
[00:19.72]
[00:20.97] But she doesn't care for him
[00:22.07]
[00:24.89] He's like a house boy
[00:26.14] to Miss Lullaby
[00:29.03] And their future looks very dim
[00:33.10] He's a miniature philosopher
[00:35.92]
[00:36.94] He takes notes on all he reads
[00:39.64]
[00:40.57] But that doesn't satisfy his needs
[00:43.31]
[00:46.37] He's a desk clerk at the bank and trust
[00:48.86]
[00:49.86] There's so many contracts and paperwork to do
[00:52.48]
[00:53.99] He gets so busy at the bank and trust
[00:56.48]
[00:57.66] There is no time for Nietzsche or Camus
[01:00.59]
[01:02.03] He's a miniature philosopher
[01:06.09] He writes essays on Voltaire
[01:07.19]
[01:10.24] But if he died no one would care
[01:13.57]
[01:15.33] He doesn't know why his life turned out this way
[01:18.72]
[01:19.53] No one ever reads his dissertations or allegoric plays
[01:25.02]
[01:26.08] So he comforts himself while searching a rhyme
[01:29.39]
[01:31.20] That the public rarely recognize a genius in their time
[01:35.94] (poor little guy)
[01:37.09]
[01:39.27] He's a miniature philosopher
[01:43.01] Though he hasn't got a friend
[01:45.82]
[01:47.38] He's sure he'll be famous in the end
[00:04.36] He' s a miniature philosopher
[00:08.23] He stands five foot three
[00:10.13]
