    "Just Text"

    Deconstruction Rap

    I'm vexed / by the Text / just hexed and perplexed
    Too much / in a clutch / with the writer as a crutch
    Will ignore / as a bore / their meaning I abhor
    And reveal / what I feel / that for me what's real:
    Just Text / Just Text / Just Text / Just Text /

    I review / what was new / when the ink still blue
    And replace / without grace / just my own red face
    To revise / not surmise / what the writer sent
    But inject / my effect / what my own self meant
    Just Text / Just Text / Just Text / Just Text /

    To repay / the dismay / that my mother gave
    Don't-wanna-hear / I'm a-feared / of the final grave
    So when I read / it's my need / that makes me annoyed
    And I can't / take it out / on a Sig-a-mund Freud
    Just Text / Just Text / Just Text / Just Text /

    Don't care / won't share / just take from the air
    Just my dreaming / in the meaning / and the author takes a creaming
    This way / I stay / even hist'ry falls away
    Could support / with my report / but I didn't bring it with me
    Just Text / Just Text /
