What's the problem, Anon? It's just a

Rag-a-muffin' life
To pull-you-through-that strife
Ain't nothin' to joke,
But if you'll only just smoak
Then maybe it'll be all-right?

[Chorus]
But that (oh)
Full-some pre-tentio-si-ty
That fills your -- thoughts, with me-diocri-ty
It's just (hey!)
Holdin' you back
If it would give you some slack
You might 'preciate ver-bosity

[Neckbeards and shitposters amble in, tripping over each others' feet; an unrealistically proportioned nude male of color begins gyrating his hips in an animated fashion, drawing one's eye--and yes, the Anons' as well!--toward the pendulous 'pendage which describes major arcs at pelvic-level. A passing /pol/lak, copy of The Culture Of Critique in hand, pauses to gaze 'pon the sight, salivating involuntarily]

[James Joyce:] There's!
[Joseph McElroy:] Nothing quite wrong
[Vladimir Nabokov:] With!
[Herman Melville:] Puttin' a song
[John Williams:] 'Midst suf-fer-ing and gran-deur
[William Gaddis:] And if you'll just
[Virginia Woolf:] Follow a-long
[Gene Wolf:] You might find yourself drawn
[All:] Into a world that doesn't pander

[All] [Chorus x 2]

Literally nothing, Salaman Rushdie offhandedly said it as a joke since that was the one major period of American history he hadn't covered yet and people clung to it
