Steve Goodman: "Miss Beverly Jones had a PhD in Physics And she went to town to look for some work. Everyplace she applied they said that she was qualified To be a secretary or a clerk. The word got out on the day she was born, But she was twenty years getting the news And the “I don’t know where I’m going But I’m going nowhere in a hurry” blues.
