A rusting tractor on the hill The fence post with the printed bill That said the sale was on until Everything was gone The auctioneer comes here today Privacy upon display The highest bidder takes away But they can't take it all The letter came on a Wednesday The bank said that we'd have to pay Or else they'd take the farm away And they said they'd take it all The auctioneer comes here today Privacy upon display The highest bidder takes away But they can't take it all There's bone and silver napkin rings Elastic bands 'round spoons and things Tiny fingers held the strings Of that fiddle in the case And there's coffee pots we never used Silver frames a little bruised Around the portraits that amused us In the parlour and the hall The auctioneer comes here today Privacy upon display The highest bidder takes away But they can't take it all Like fireglow and favorite songs And laughter, they're the things among The memories that still belong Within those empty rooms O remember when the lights were low Pies, balloons and mistletoe Morning sunlight on the snow Who will buy a broken sleigh? The auctioneer comes here today Privacy upon display The highest bidder takes away But they can't take it all There's a jar of nails and a box of tacks The dining chairs with the wicker backs They're in the garden piled and stacked And being spotted by the rain The auctioneer comes here today Cars line the sidewalk black and grey Children watch the odd display While their mothers touch the lots That are numbered now with coloured tags Books and clothing sold in bags Bought for learning, bought for rags Everything must go The auctioneer comes here today Privacy upon display The highest bidder takes away But they can't take it all delphinium's transcript from https://mudcat.org (18 Jul 04 - 05:03 PM) |
