The laundry mat, a necessary evil,
If you have no washer or drier,
That's where you go.

Clink clang, quarters fall out of the change machine
Only to be taken by the washers and dryers

In and out, people being loud
They come inside and then leave

Beep beep beep
Buzz, buzz, buzz
Washers and dryers crying out to be switched or
Started up again.

Heavy baskets of laundry are transported from place
To place.

Someone always leaving a sock or a pair of underwear behind,
Later curious as to where it went.

Many don't understand why people use the place
But when you are poor or don't have a place to put
A washer or a dryer, that is the loophole in the world of
Washer dryer ownership.
