SOFA
I wanted to drink fine Champaign
and to go dancing in the rain.
The opera would have been nice
and supper after would suffice.
I love a fancy chandelier
when I am dining with you, dear.
A candelabra all lit up
would suit me as we cuddle up.
Instead I'm sitting feeling torn
so melancholy and forlorn.
I sit on this settee alone
just waiting for the telephone.
A zealous clerk is why I wait
for you and I to celebrate.
I have this innate dread you see
of officious bureaucracy.
