Here below is perhaps a song lyric or poem...

              Victim of Intelligence 
               Intelligence is a crazy thing 
  Too much and you feel the sting 
  Things seem so boring and it's all the same 
  I wish it took less to satisfy my brain.  
              Switch on the TV and what do I see? 
  Same soap, cooking, reality or a murder enquiry 
  Makes one think - just what is wrong. 
  Have I been missing something all along.  
              Is it the others who cannot see 
  Just how boring the world can be. 
  Got your iPad and got your phone 
  You're fitting in you're not alone. 
  Repetitive sounds and the same old ads. 
  May not be counted but may be charged. 
  Think of the number on happy pills 
  They're the ones who were thinking still.  
              Binge drinking is a thing young do 
  To get away and find something new. 
  So fed with the same old sounds, 
  the news and things that make the world go round.  
              Trying to find something new 
  Something fresh or another view. 
  But the rest just sit stuck like glue 
  With no vision and without a clue. 
  If you're thinking - It seems you're cursed 
  Some can find so little to satisfy their thirst. 
  Expand your mind and try and create 
  Make something of your life 
  Before it's too late.  
              Being a victim with an active mind 
  You must take a rest and try to find 
  A way to embrace those simple things 
  That the others find so interesting. 
  Be like them for twelve hours a day 
  It may turn out to be the only way.
