CLOSER FURTHER
It starts when I get on
The wrong train
Easy enough to do
In New York where
They whiz in from
And out to places
You’ve only heard of
Mine only go out
What goes out must
Come in you might think
But I manage to get
On another wrong one
That goes further out
To another place I’ve
Only heard of
Most of this happens
Because I make decisions
Quickly based on the maybe
This is the right train
And it’s pulling out
I even fought last night
To get on the wrong train
Forcing the doors open
Finally I ask some locals
Walk over here and take
This one back to that place
And so I wend my way
Back to where I wanted to be
Then of course I have to
Look for the new apartment
I have a key but there are
So many doors and floors
It was a long night
Tossing and turning but
Thank goodness it wasn’t
One of those nights
I was being chased by
Dinosaurs
