Wrong side

Instead

I woke this morning

On the wrong side of the bed

Shifted my rump

And bonked my head

Someone somewhere

Woke this morning

On the right side of the bed

They shifted their rump

And didn’t bonk their head

Must be nice to live on that side

Of the world

Where wishes had wings

And people can fly

I’m stuck here on the wrong side of the world

And get up on the wrong side of the bed

No wishes

No wings

No flying

Instead

We are stuck

On the wrong side of the bed
