You say it's wrong, an affliction-an addiction to fiction
You want a book interdiction, or a fiction restriction
Scrap those novels by Dickens.  Who cares about an orphan who's stricken
Dicken's diction needs fixin'.  It's too rich-it's just sickening
But the plot is just thickening, and the dead ink is quickening
I see you over there, you're snickering at my Voltaire, not this schtick again
Do you really dare to climb in the ring, and go one round with the fiction-king
You better stretch or you'll pull your hamstring, when you're hamstrung by my wellspring

'Cause I'm so bibliophilic
You see a book and you feel sick
I see a book and then real quick
I gotta read it cause it's real thick

I read fiction--it's magic
You read nothing, that's tragic
Add a tive to an adjec
And as an adjective you're sad, it's just so

I'll, illiterate
'Cause you still, still don't read lit
You wanna feel, feel, better?  Get
A library card and please start using it

I've got a bad case of bibliophilia
In Latin, that means love of books, fo' real-ia
And I love the smell of books, too-it's a thrill-ia
When I catch a whiff of yellowing O'Neill-ia

I've got a bad case of bibliophilia
Do you yearn for novels?  Then I'm feelin' ya
Like the Prince of Denmark loved Ophelia
I've got a love for books that I just can't conceal-ia

Did you read Atwood?  Well you might should, 'cause your ignorance is no good
Toni Morrison, she won't bore you, son, but I bet you can't read more than one
Of the classics, 'cause you're spastic, Snapchat is not scholastic
Oh you got a streak, fantastic-I'm so enthusiastic
Allende's a full send, hey, I used some slang, comprende
But F. Scott is my true bae, with his Gats-bay, take your breath away
I fear that these allusions that I'm dropping so profusely
Are just flying like a cuckoo over your head, it's no use

Cause I'm so bibliophilic
You see a book and you feel sick
I see a book and then real quick
I gotta read it cause it's real thick

I read fiction--it's magic
You read nothing, that's tragic
Add a tive to an adjec
And as an adjective your sad, it's just so

I'll, illiterate
'Cause you still, still don't read lit
You wanna feel, feel, better?  Get
A library card and please start using it

I got a bad case of bibliophilia
Can't help it if these books are just appealing ta
My literary sense and sensibilia
Just love my Tess of the Duber-ville-ias

I got a bad case of bibliophilia
Stacking books all the way to the ceiling, yah
Can you please find me a discount or a deal-ia
On some shelves because these stacks are not ideal-ia

Bradbury's fire: 451 degrees
I'm a Montag, you're a Mildred--you've got seashells and some screens
I've got a thirst for narrative and knowledge borderline obscene
But why burn books when reading's obsolete
Raskolnikov, he called it off, when you closed the book and nodded off
You're sleepy, well I'm sorry boss: you missed a lot of ah, ah, ah.
Groucho says outside of a dog, a book is your best friend
Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.  The end

I got a bad case of bibliophilia
This book smells better than a bougainvillea
If you give me a book, then I'll keel-ia
Over in delight, and I might squeal-ia

I got a bad case of bibliophilia
Very few words rhyme with bibliophilia
So I guess that that is all I'll say until-ia
You start reading, please, I'm begging you, for real-ia
