Lull customers to sleep
No excitement
Packs his traveling case
Off to find a new crowd
No street selling allowed
Oh, drat the luck

The sky of the ebbing day
Fades into night’s gloom

Mama and Papa bear
Enjoy the quietude
Of their sweet, blended brood
When they’re asleep

Heed the soul’s call within
To seek your harbor safe
In your choices, have faith
Then you’ll be home
