Travel Plans

Let's not saunter to Saturn this evening Or amble across to the moon If we ramble up there in a rocket We won't get there any time soon I'd rather we didn't dawdle to Denmark Or dilly-dally our way to Des Moines That's far too slow and specific You can ask - I'm not likely to join You might suggest a jaunt to Jamaica Or a stroll down the streets of Shanghai Or even a schlep to the shops, my dear But there are other things I'd like to try We could mosey on a mission to Miami Set our sights and percolate to Peru Or meander to Mexico City Where we're sure to find something to do Why wander without any purpose? Why sprint to a rendezvous or a meet? What a waste of energy and motion It'll ruin your heart and your feet! But to coddiwomple to the Canaries Where there's always a nice summer breeze Is my idea of perfection Can we go there tonight… can we... please?!
