This Morning Lament
Waking up, waking up, wish could sleep more, a bit,
Brushing my teeth, I wish, didn’t have to do it,
Taking shower, wish I could skip, the kit,
So unbearable cold , am kaput this morning.
The world is waiting and saying hey!
Why doesn’t it forget me, at least for a day?
At least for one day, out of 365 days!
Oh this world, unbearable it is, so becoming.
This boss and those workers are all too familiar,
I do the same thing they command the same thing,
I earn the same thing as if they earn a bit more,
Oh this job, it is so so straining, yet I go.
Time to go home, the end has come,
Time to lock me in, evening has come,
Time to eat dinner, night has come,
Time to sleep, oh I wish morning shall never come!
