You have re-arranged the furniture, built a cupboard
Surrounded yourself with sound, light, & a flat screen twenty seven inch television
Only to discover that materialism reaches its limits; you spread out from those four walls
Venture onto the trackers trail, fill your rucksack with layby’s fruits of love
Eat into your vast reserves; re-join living society & take a walk, take a long endless walk
