Repository of the Useless Books

Hey, here you gotta haveta take a great big look
At this repository of the world’s most useless books
What will you find as you flip through its pages?
Nothing that hasn’t been passed down through the ages

Why it is here collecting dust — is it just no good?
Should its pages be pulped to save some precious wood?
If you ask me, the public’s indifference is rather dire
Basically, all of these books beg to be tossed on the fire
