Being on the ground floor gives me access
to beautiful men and the best restaurants.
I just can’t get enough!

I’m close to parking and shopping
so I don’t have to go far but I do get pissed
when someone takes my parking place.
The best one is right outside my door
and the super gave it to the Bimbo in 110
when I have been here much longer.
But really it’s a good address,
much better than yours.

Problems?

Well, it’s those neighbors upstairs
with their dancing at midnight
and twinkling lights at all hours
and the bowling, my God,
the bowling.

and the fact that I' m just one floor up
from the furnace.
