Get in Lane!
What lane for you, what lane for me?
And what are you… a V.I.P?
Or are you just an S.I.P?
A self important T.I.T!
I’ll tell you who’s a V.I.P;
My wife, and son, both her and he,
To me, more so than they to thee.
And so we three just have to be,
Content to travel more slowly
Than you, while off you hurtle to
The games, what fun! Not what we do,
At work in vital hospital,
Or factory, on trivial
Matters of life and death to keep...
The world revolving for you creep!
