Good Old Desk

My old desk does an arabesque

In the morning, when I first arrive

It's a pleasure to see

It's waiting there for me, to keep my hopes alive

Such a comfort to know, it's got no place to go

It's always there

It's the one thing I've got

A huge success

My good old desk

My old desk never needs a rest

And I've never once heard it cry

I've never seen it tease

It's always there to please me from nine to five

Such a comfort to know, it's dependable and slow

But it's always there

It's the one friend I've got

A giant of all times

My good old desk

My old desk isn't picturesque

But it's happy as a desk can be

We never say a word

But it's perfectly alright with me

For when my heart's on the floor, I just open the drawer

Of my favorite guest

And what do I see?

But a picture of me, working at my good old desk
