Stay in Bed

Dawn is breaking

Birds are singing

Sunshine shining

Alarm bell ringing

But I've cooked up another plan instead

Today's the day I stay in bed

Friends are waiting

School is calling

Dogs are barking

Cats caterwauling

While I'm inactive and as good as dead

Today's the day I stay in bed

Voices chatting

Toast is toasting

TV blaring

Postwoman posting

But I'm switching my green light to a red

Today's the day I stay in bed

Cars are revving

Engines starting

Front door slamming

Family departing

While I pull my duvet over my head

Today's the day I stay in bed

Today's the day I stay in bedzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
