Long Weekend

Even here, where time
does feel to stand still
for a day or two,
it’s worth accepting
that there can still be crime.

So listen for the click
Yes, listen for the click
Listen for the click of the patio door

That laptop you thought
you could live without
but brought, just in case,
- it could easily disappear
and the thief not get caught.

So listen for the click
Yes, listen for the click
Listen for the click of the patio door

And what about your phone,
camera, wallet? You might
leave them in the lounge all night
only to wake up next morning
to find they’re gone.

So listen for the click
Yes, listen for the click
Listen for the click of the patio door

I’d like to believe
everyone’s honest
but I know it’s best
to take precautions
- some folk thieve.

So listen for the click
Yes, listen for the click
Listen for the click of the patio door
