This is what it feels like to be hemmed in at every turn by typewriters. Typewriters everywhere, with nary a drop of ink in the house. I am trying desperately hard to burst free, with more than 20 typewriters lined up waiting to be shipped off, another 40 odd on the stairwell waiting to be picked up and taken away this week, and half a dozen in the working area waiting to be fixed. And, yes, there is an Olympia portable (or three) on my mind ...
Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
I got the feeling that something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wondering how I'll get down those stairs

Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Yes, I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I'm wondering what it is I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
Losing control, yeah I'm all over the place

Gromas to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Trying to make some sense of it all
But I can see it makes no sense at all
Is it cool to go to sleep on the floor?
'Cuz I don't think that I can take any more

Here I am, stuck in the middle with you

ReplyDeleteI love the re-write!
ReplyDeleteI'm walled off with typewriters much to my wife's chagrin although she really likes my latest find.
