In His Chair

In his chair he'll watch a movie Traveling fast to parts unknown In reach, a mini frig with beer Oh, look how the kids have grown! His back pain is a coincidence It's been said he's in denial Yes he has sores on his rump, What is this, some kind of trial? In his chair he gets all the news Like there was a riot in France A fire out west and floods down south He saw a bear in a bar dance! How can he keep all these places In that small space beneath his hair? He's not worried, for he has been told There is a lot of room in there!

That's funny! Actually it was an exaggerated version of me. Maybe we're brothers from another mother!...80)
