“Well I thought
That you should
Just be knowing
About the place
That we are going!
“It’s ten times better
Than your place!”
He said it with
A poker face!
“We have a boat
We have a lake
Each night we get
A giant cake!
“And singers come
To our delight
And entertain us
Every night!”
“Oh yeah?” she cried
“The place we go
You never heard of
You don’t know!
“It’s on a mountain
Oh so high
We breathe the freshness
Of the sky
“We have our own
Ski lift chair!
The only way
To get up there
And breathe the fresh, clean
Mountain air!
“There’s steaks and drinks
When it gets dark
We got our own
Amusement park!”
And each one bragged
And each one shared
The silly things
Of what they cared
Of fleeting toys
And passing things
The transitory joy
It brings
“And then they smile
And they go
Thinking their friend
Does not know…
They sneak back to
Their bungalow!
And sit, relaxed
Play with their kid
Talk to their wife
‘Bout thing they did
And share a coffee
And a blatt
And step inside
When it gets hot
And in their minds
They both do know
That there’s no better
Place to go
The good old
Heimish
Bungalow!
