BACK TO THE STACKS–Lyrics

“Back to the Stacks” as sung to the tune of “Back to the Shack,” by Weezer

Sorry guys I didn’t realize you researched so much
I thought I’d get new the audit done, I forget that admin sucks
I ended up staring at spreadsheets feeling numb
Maybe I should staff the desk and get some reference done

Take me back, back to the stacks
Away from the stats with the office crap
Line out the door, research floor
Keepin’ them out like it’s ‘34
Let’s pick up the telephone
Let’s give out the wi-fi’s code
I know where we need to go:
Back to the stacks

I got out of project job hell and I’m paying off my debts
I flunked a couple interviews before I realized all of my strengths
I’m putting myself out there to give the patrons what I can
Cause history and lib’ary degrees narrowed all my options

Take me back, back to the stacks
Away from the stats with the office crap
Line out the door, research floor
Keepin’ them out like it’s ‘34
Let’s pick up the telephone
Let’s give out the wi-fi’s code
I know where we need to go:
Back to the stacks

We belooooooong in the archives
There is soooooooo much processing to do
If history diiiiii-iiiiies from obscurity, Oh well
At.Least.We.Re-moved.Stay-pells!

Take me back, back to the stacks
Away from the stats with the office crap
Line out the door, research floor
Keepin’ them out like it’s ‘34
Let’s pick up the telephone
Let’s give out the wi-fi’s code
I know where we need to go:
Back to the stacks

Let’s pick up the telephone
Let’s give out the wi-fi’s code
I know where we need to go:
Back to the stacks
