Oh silly chatty boys
What sweet diddly-doo
Two friends like George
Or just like Lennie
Or perhaps one of each
But I doubt it really
The movie in your heads
Has you both in the lead
But the way you are perceived
By the audience is neither
Sharp nor dull nor brilliant nor dumb
But somewhere in the middle
Where mediocre comes from
And how I wish with magic wand
I could make stars out of want
But star-maker I am not
Especially when the ingredients
Are missing quite a lot
