| I pity inanimate objects | |
| Because they can't move | |
| From specks of dust to paperweights | |
| Or a pound note sealed in resin | |
| Plastic Santas in perpetual underwater snowstorms | |
| Sculptures that appear to be moving but aren't | |
| I feel sorry for them all | |
| What are they thinking when they arrive at a place? | |
| Do they sigh with disappointment? | |
| And when they leave, do they have regrets? | |
| Is a sofa as happy in one corner as it is in another? | |
| And how does the room feel about it? | |
| I pity inanimate objects | |
| I pity inanimate objects | |
| I pity inanimate objects | |
| I pity them all | |
| Physics isn't fair | |
| Is a tree as a rocking horse an ambition fulfilled? | |
| And is the sawdust jealous? | |
| I worry about these things | |
| Peppercorns don't move | |
| Until they contaminate the ice-cream | |
| Three weeks later | |
| Is the gold in Fort Knox happy gold? | |
| I care about these things | |
| Some things are better left alone | |
| Grains of sand prefer their own company | |
| But magnets are two-faced | |
| No choice for sugar | |
| But what choice could there be, | |
| but to drown in coffee or to drown in tea? | |
| The frustrations of being inanimate | |
| Maybe it's better that way | |
| The fewer the moving parts | |
| The less there is to go wrong | |
| I wonder about these things | |
| I pity inanimate objects | |
| I pity inanimate objects | |
| I pity inanimate objects | |
| I pity them all. |
