Vacate

Vacate your apartment
From 8:30 until 4
Was the message in the notice
Hand-delivered to my door.

A crane is being lifted
To the roof so just in case
An accident occurs, we need
An empty living space.

Whoever's ass is on the line's
Not taking any chances
And I've been told it's not the time
To take indignant stances.

So if you plan to visit Friday,
You should phone instead
Because I'll be out all day,
Which I prefer to being dead.
