I'm bored
I'm bored
There's nothing to do
I've seen every movie
I've read every book
Hid in every corner
Looked in every nook
I've painted each scene
Hiked on every trail
Ridden my bike
Learned how to sail
I've had every hairstyle
I've slept in castles and tents
I've flown planes and raced cars
On each continent
I've ridden each beast
Whether big or small
Been to all fifty states
And was governor of them all
I've written every love song
And can play each instrument
I've been a medical doctor
A dentist, a lawyer
And a longshore-fisherman
There's just one thing left for me to do
One thing that's never been done
No one has ever done everything
And then started all over again
This reminds me of the first monologue from Faust. Not deep resemblance, but it struck me as funny.
good call bfv. Perhaps there should be a kid's version of Faust. A lot of Faust's expression of his powers in the Marlow play involves playing stupid tricks on people. Kids can relate to that. But rather than eternal damnation, there can be a kid punishment.
I went searching because if My First Kafka exists it should too. I found Faust: the Original Disney Princess instead, which is even better.
