What was it to you?
Was it a piece of gum
hot from the summer sun
that needs scrapping from a shoe?
Was it the incessant barking
from the dog next door
that you can just close the window on?
Was it a fly in your drink
that you can just throw out
and pour yourself another?
Was it that squeaky wheel
on the shopping cart
at the supermarket?
Or was it the little boy
in the waiting room
who just wouldn't shut the fuck up??
I thought it was love
Guess I was wrong
