“If I’m a guy who doesn’t seem so merry,
It’s just because I’m so misunderstood.
When I was young I ate a dictionary,
And that did not do me a bit of good.
For I’ve absorbed so many words and phrases—
They drive me dizzy when I want to speak.
I start explaining but each person gazes
As if I spoke in Latin or in Greek.”
― Ira Gershwin
