( or why I need to keep my day job--wait, I don't have one!!!)

I have the PhD blues
so bad I can't find my shoes
when you think there's nothing left to lose
so broke you can't afford booze
you get the very bad news
now you ain't got no shoes
but you got the PhD blues

oh the PhD blues
why did I ever choose
this PhD degree
with all of its drudgery
I ain't got no research muse
all I got is
the PhD blues

add your own verse! =)
maybe someone can write some music for it and we can take it on the road in a cabaret style show and become really rich and forget about actually DOING a PhD! ( the latest of my PhD escape fantasies..or delusions...)

When days of pain are dull and long,
and nights of lonesome thought never end,
then I sit here and sing my song,
the PhD blues - my last remaining friend.

The data seems to satisfy,
never anybody sitting high,
on the supervisor throne,
they critisize me without measure,
and seem to derive so much pleasure,
from telling me how bad it is
my work, writing, style and all the lack,
of criticality they miss,
and all I think is :what the f***?

Sing it Jouri!!!!!!!!

Jouri has the PhD blues
when he hears from his supervisor king
its always bad news

the PhD blues have helped...I have just written 465 fab words as the new intro to my de-structed chapter that gives me EXACTLY what I need to tie this thing back together! =)))) whew!!!! I was moments away from stomping my USB stick into splinters.

Its the PhD blues
its not a date with Tom Cruise
its an arduous long -winded purgatorial cruise
Its a research degree
unfortunately not a freebie
its the type of thing you find
makes you slightly lose your mind

keeps you up late at night
giving the dawn chorus a fright
They don't pay me in booze,
and not even my dues,
Its the bafflingly longwinded
procrastinating phd blues


Can you tell im bored? Is it really that obvious?
