The Moving Truck

The moving truck is there,
will they be going soon?
They truck is loading everything,
I watch them as they do.

The moving truck is there,
it’s got a seasoned crew,
the truck is loading everything,
to take them some place new.

They’ve loaded the big couch,
they’ve stacked up all the chairs,
even packed up the bicycles
they could have ridden there.

The moving truck is gone,
the street is clear again,
the cable-guys came by after
to disconnect the mains.

The moving truck is gone,
that house is now empty,
we don’t know who will come after,
I guess we’ll have to see.

They could be young parents,
or be retirees,
as long as they’re not party types
it’s all the same to me.
