141 Boxes

One hundred forty one boxes
I just moved around today
big and small, old and brown,
light and heavy by the pound

Too many, too many boxes!
I moved around today.
Stacked them in neat stacks
so that I can find my way

One hundred forty one boxes
but I don't know what to say
for once I have moved them all
one hundred forty one more
are already on their way.

One hundred forty one boxes
I just like the way it sounds,
but don't like to have to move them
or to carry them around.
