Stuck in the house again,

  Where else could I go?

I can see the mountains from here,

  But they have a dusting of snow.

Locked in the house again,

  Where else could I go?

I see a creek and two trails,

  Just beyond the back window.

Trapped in the house again,

  Where else could I go?

I watch the cars fly by,

  Heading to dinner or a show?

Caged in the house again,

  Where else could I go?

I’m mired in a sprawling city,

  What to do?  I don’t know.
