The Ease of Elevators
You can take the stairs
You can take them one by one
You can let your feet hit the wood
Or the concrete
Or the plastic
You can prepare for the stairs
You can buy the shoes
You can tie the strings
You can do the magic
You can tell them about your tricks
Your tied shoes
Your legs so fit
You can take the stairs
You can take them home
You can let them haunt you
Or you can leave them alone
But
There’s a natural ease to elevators
That’s been designed just for you
And sweet, unbeknownst, honey,
Don’t you know
You can take elevators too
