Moving Along
It's coming
I see where my toes will fit
It's a little more than a lump
But my toes will fit
Momma said," Stay with me,
Don't travel about.
The escalator will bite and suck you in.
No more toes,
And it will win."
I've never listened before
Now I end up stuck in the floor
Sucked into the moving walkway
The floor is no more
Perhaps I'll become an exit sign
Only work when people pay a dime
Here I stand
Toes stuck in airport land
Caught my toes in the airport escalator
