My Chair
Jill Sobule

What do I see to the right of me?

The man in A-473

He’s got a rash where his sleeve’s rolled up

And a swizzle stick in his pencil cup

What do I see to the left of me?

It’s Ginger from Parsippany

Her hair is brown and her face is red

Her Labrador sleeps on the bed

And what do I see in front of me?

A hint of domesticity

The supervisor’s little boys

Their smiling faces, smiling toys

My chair is twenty stories high

I see you when you tell a lie

Where you ate and where you slept

The promises you never kept

You never kept

What do I see to the right of me?

A woman I would rather be

Taller, thinner, better skin

A dimple in her perfect chin

And what do I see to the left of me?

A man that I would rather be

The deeper voice and the dapper clothes

The leather shoes his girlfriend chose

Oh tell me what is left of me

At Great Republic Guaranty

The little kingdom that I rule

As empress of the invoice pool

My chair is twenty stories high

I see you when you tell a lie

Where you ate and where you slept

The promises you never kept

You never kept

My chair is twenty stories high

Another solitary night

I see there is no guarantee

Oh tell me what is left of me

What’s left of me
