Stir-crazy

It’s absolutely beautiful outside

should be a crime to stay inside

But my ass must work indoors

to pay bills and club covers

The spring air sings with life

while I die a little inside

No window in my office

just stale air and fluorescent overheads

Oh, how I wish I could walk a little

stroll downtown in the sunshine

But nay, computer glare is all I get

in my office here confined

What a joy it must be to be dead

and ne’er have to work again,

to be free to walk the earth lifeless

as a spirit instead of an office bitch
