A Song about Doodling

A Song about Doodling

A Poem by Valeigh Starr
"

To be sung to the tune of Taylor Swift's "Love Story" (and yes, I think it might be an improvement on the original.) This should go through the first verse, pre-chorus and chorus.

"
I was so bored when I first doodled,
I close my eyes and the flashback starts: I'm sittin' there
in a classroom without enough air.
I see the notes, hear the drone of the teacher,
see my pencil hover over the paper, draw a line
and that would have been fine, o-oh
but then I draw a squiggle and I shade in the shape.
I miss the assignment and get started late
but I keep using paper, fillin' up all the margins, oh. I'm so bored!

Doodling keeps me from falling asleep in class.
Ran out of books and I can't get a hall pass so
fancy letters, random shapes, music notes and faces,
doodling's my pastime every single day, yes.

Thanks! I wrote it in high school during political science. It must not have been a West Wing day.
