Noam, do you understand me somehow?

Some things l write sound a bit outré

But don't you know that no one alive

Can always be a diplomat,

When words go astray I seem to be odd

But I'm just a scholar whose intentions are good

Dear Noam, please don't let me be misunderstood

Can't help it to be bound to deep logic

With allusions that are hard to decode

And sometimes it seems that all I do is ruminate

Then you're bound to see my lighter mode

But I'm just a scholar whose intentions are good

Dear Noam, please don't alienate me, if you would

If I seem apoplectic I want you to know

That I never meant to unsettle you

Life has its problems and we all get our share

Double-binding is one thing I never meant to do

Because I care about you

Oh, Noam don't you know I'm a systemizer

Have systematic thoughts I cannot dismiss

Sometimes I find myself long reflecting

Some angst-ridden trope, 

Some inscrutable move you may dread

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Dear Noam, please don't let me be misunderstood

Yes, I'm just a scholar whose intentions are good

Dear Noam, please don't alienate me, if you would

Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
