I think not, therefore I am

 I'm not a big thinker

No I'm not

I'm not what you'd call

A hot shot

I can add and divide

Just to stay alive

But as philosopher of reason

I am slack

So take back the books

You won

Burn down the libraries

Where I learn

Haul up the stock

From the ocean floor

Because I am drunk

On the evermore

I am not a big thinker

I don't need the stress

Give me a meal in a kitchen

Life is priceless

But do I need a ticket

From an academic institution

To say I have read and understood

Their superstition

I think not

Therefore I am
