In the great purple room
there was a telephone
and work to resume
and a picture of…
A summer camp in June
And there were lots of pet hairs on a chair
And grants to be written, unwritten, and rewritten
And a view of fishing And sometimes wishing
And a stiletto heel and a “fun wheel” and a bowl full of oatmeal
And a couple of co-workers whispering “hush!”
Good-bye room Good-bye room
Good-bye lunch at noon
Good-bye light and the work to resume
Good-bye pet hairs Good-bye chairs
Good-bye notes written and Good-bye files to be gettin’
Good-bye clocks and good-bye walking around in my socks
Good-bye little office and Good-bye leaving at night exhausted
Good-bye home and Good-bye dust
Good-bye nobody Good-bye oatmeal
And Good-bye to the couple of co-workers whispering “hush!”
Good-bye local stars Good-bye air
Good-bye noises everywhere
