Cardboard

He wakes right up
In his cardboard bed
With his cardboard thoughts
Floating 'round his head,
Then he gets up now
With a cardboard smile,
Walks to the bathroom as if
Marching rank in file,
And he washes himself
In cardboard water
From a cardboard shower
With a cardboard loofah
Then cleans his teeth with a cardboard brush,
Gets dressed because he's always in a rush.

Then he goes to work
In his cardboard car
And his cardboard clothes
Making him look smart
For the cardboard people
Who greet him at work
With their cardboard hands
Lacking soul and dirt,
Then he just drones on
And he won't stop now
Spewing cardboard words
From his cardboard mouth
And the cardboard people keep list'ning in
To his boring cardboard words with sting.

And the day goes on
For the cardboard kings,
And they all start to feel
As if they all have wings,
But they all know
They will have to stop,
Otherwise, eventually
They'll simply drop,
So they sit right down
With their cardboard lunch
And their cardboard friends
And begin to munch
On a cardboard apple and a cardboard twix,
As well as cardboard chicken sticks.

Then he comes straight home
At the end of the day
To his cardboard wife
After earning cardboard pay,
And his cardboard children
Flock 'round his feet
And a cardboard hug
Is then their greet,
Then they eat their dinner;
A cardboard mess,
Before going to bed
And getting undressed
And he lies right back and enjoys his stay
Before the cardboard repeats the very next day.
