Mattresses
Your mattress has had it up to here
And that's too high to tap the sky
That's too high to own a back to break
A back like yours
That your mattress hugs to keep you snug
Throughout the bedbug nightmares
Throughout the slumbers we all need
To breathe a breeze through
The next day in line
The next minute yet to come
It has had it up to here
And now quits its graveyard shift
It is sick and dizzy of your secret rituals
With your secret people, who never ever blink
Who never ever stop to say hello
Well, mattresses have feelings, too
