RESTLESS NIGHT

 

In error I booked in to a cheap hotel

Frequented by very odd clientele

You could tell that it wasn’t great

The room even had an hourly rate

I had not expected a peaceful night

Within an hour I was proven right

Through paper-thin walls it comes

A steady rhythm like beating drums

The rhythm growing more intensely

Then passions are expressed vocally

Then came the squeaking of springs 

An almost orchestral feel it brings

Grunts and groans they both express

Then in soprano she adds yes, oh yes,

Then the crescendo and then no more

Well for ten minutes until the encore

Later I wished after due consideration

That he’d not asked the same question
