I’m a Reader – The Jerrys
My new single, “I’m a Reader,” is available as a free download!
I’m a Reader
If it’s got what I want
If it’s got what I need
Then I’ll pick it up
And I’ll give it a read.
If it’s got what it takes
If it’s doing it for me
Then I’ll read it again
‘Cause that’s just me.
I’ve got to have it.
I love the smell of a page.
I can’t help it
‘Cause I’m a reader.
If it’s only a tweet
Or a Ulysses
Then I’m right at home
I’m feeling at ease.
If it’s only a word
Or a tome or two
Then I want to read it—
How about you?
You know I love it.
I love the words on a screen.
I can’t help it
‘Cause I’m a reader.
If it’s making me laugh
If it’s making me cry
If it’s telling me how
If it’s telling me why
If it’s got what I want
If it’s got what I need
Then I’m eating it up
‘Cause I love to read.
I’ve got to have it.
I love that reading all right.
I can’t help it
‘Cause I’m a reader.
