Late Night Noise
Some nights all’s calm Some nights there’s peace Nothing’s stirring Can’t hear a sound But then there are…
Roaring engines The squeal of tyres The screech of brakes The toot of horns What will be next?
A siren wails Breaks the silence Breaks through the night Rushes about
So disruptive Disturbing me When I’m trying To get some sleep
