this is THE HOME THAT SANAA BUILT

This is the home that Sanaa built.

This is the air mattress that lay in the home that Sanaa built.

This is the glorious bed that replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.

These are the tools that made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress that lay in the home that Sanaa built.

These are the never-ending instructions that guided the tools
That made the glorious bed that replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.

This is the crumpled toe, a result of a mishap in the instructions
That guided the tools that made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.

I am the maiden all forlorn
Who dropped a headboard, causing a crumpled toe,
A result of a mishap in the instructions that guided the tools
That made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.

This is the nightstand, all shiny and new
That pleased the maiden all forlorn
Who dropped a headboard, causing a crumpled toe
A result of a mishap in the instructions that guided the tools
That made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.

This is the dresser all cute and squat
That was built with the nightstand
That pleased the maiden all forlorn
Who dropped a headboard, causing a crumpled toe
A result of a mishap in the instructions that guided the tools
That made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.


This is the microwave that "crowed" in the morn
That accompanied the dresser all cute and squat
That was built with the nightstand
That pleased the maiden all forlorn
Who dropped a headboard, causing a crumpled toe
A result of a mishap in the instructions that guided the tools
That made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.

This is the food, warm and delicious
That was heated by the microwave that "crowed" in the morn
That accompanied the dresser all cute and squat
That was built with the nightstand
That pleased the maiden all forlorn
Who dropped a headboard, causing a crumpled toe
A result of a mishap in the instructions that guided the tools
That made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.


I feel content and productive and appreciative of the little things
Like the food, warm and delicious
That was heated by the microwave that "crowed" in the morn
That accompanied the dresser all cute and squat
That was built with the nightstand
That pleased the maiden all forlorn
Who dropped a headboard, causing a crumpled toe
A result of a mishap in the instructions that guided the tools
That made the glorious bed
That replaced the air mattress
That lay in the home that Sanaa built.
