IN THE LIBRARY

When I graduated from school, I went looking for a 

      career

An astronaut or fireman or railroad engineer

So I paid a visit to my local library

Seeking help with my itinerary

I asked, "How do you get a job as a librarian?"

"You have to be well read," they said. "And a 

      humanitarian."

"The librarian's job is harder than it looks

There's more to it than just reshelving books

You have to answer questions while keeping 

      everyone quiet

It's like going to an All-You-Can-Eat restaurant 

      while being on a diet

The hours are long, the work demanding, and not 

      alot of pay

And you can't leave at night 'til all the books are  

      put away

But the rewards are great, when you help     

      someone do their homework or finish a book 

      report

Or find a book on building things, or play their 

      favorite sport!"

And though I didn't become a librarian, I  

      developed great respect for their work

So now I'm always quiet in the library, instead of 

      screaming like a jerk!
