oblivious

I cleaned your room today…

Ian Cunnold

--

To my daughter…

Hummed to the tune of “A day in the Life” Beatles

I cleaned your room today, oh boy

I hesitated before stepping in

And though your room was rather small

Well I just had to laugh

I took a photograph

It blew my mind as I stepped in

I wore protective gloves and facial mask

I couldn’t move so stood and stared

I’d not seen this before

I wasn’t really sure

If this was from a House of Horrors

I saw your room today, oh boy

The English army couldn’t win this war

I thought at first to turn away

But I just had to look

I think I need a book

Why can’t you clean your room?
