Here I am, a sort of prisoner My body is the cell And, perhaps you are the cell key I have all day long to sit here And all day is a long time But my legs don't want to move me now Please, all I ask is that you come around and see me The game shows in the morning Do their best to entertain And the news does its to worry me (I don't know why I watch it) But I like the way The T.V. fills the room with human voice And sometimes it is amusing (Sometimes) Please, all I ask is that you come around and see me Why don't you come around and see me In the middle of the afternoon I'm sure it's much too quiet Then again, maybe there is noise And I just can't hear it Please, all I ask is that you come around and see me Please, just half an hour inside the twenty-four Please, just one half an hour Please, all I ask is that you come around Why don't you come around and see me Come around and see me Do you think I won't know you? Well, I'm not senile yet You talk about putting people in small boxes You know how that is Or do you? Oh, when you are my age, you're in my place You'll understand I know you will
