How Bad Can a Room Be
How Bad Can a Room Be
No wonder my wife has been bitching
Our room is directly above the kitchen
Pots and pans are rattling everywhere
Give us room like this would not dare.
Guess what? They have done it anyway
Bad things about cruise we have to say
Our room is beside elevator and next to
Terrifying trip will be going through.
Noise here, then there and everywhere
To us both, this surely doesn't seem fair
And a Three Star Mariner we have been
But now our nerves are wearing thin.
Maybe some earmuffs we better put on
Then all the noise will be over and done
Hope better things for us will be in store
But wearing earmuffs while on shore.
This is actually going to happen. We have been
assigned 1106 on Holland America's Oosterdam.
It is even next to the main office. We will be
having a parade in front of our room.
