Indoor, outdoor
Are you the type of person
Preferring to be under a roof
Or wandering in the garden
Or galloping out on the hoof
Are you desperate to escape
To the sunshine
The beach or leafy glade
Or sitting on the sofa
Drinking whisky and lemonade
Do you love to look out the window
But pleased to be warm inside
When others are walking in wellies
And you are safe in the dry
Is your dream to have a posh bedroom
A shower and toilet ensuite
Or prefer to be on a mountain
With long grass round your feet
Is your pleasure the feel of the spray
When waves break on the rocks
Or the smell of bread in the oven
As you stand in your joggers and socks
Do you like to get up in the morning
And put on your running kit
Escape to the footpaths or roadways
Or sit on the sofa and knit
I expect the thought of a bike ride
Would not be everyone's thing
When theres chance to go to the bathroom
To stand in the shower and sing
The difference from indoor to outdoor
Shows each of us as unique
In the kitchen or in the garden
In the chair or up the creek
Some of us like to be walking
Or leaping over a gate
The wind and the rain don't deter us
Arriving home quite late
While some prefer the safety
Of the rooms within the house
Things in the warmth of the homestead
Hiding away like a mouse.
In truth the split isn't easy
From indoor to outdoor you see
The weather decides for it mostly
Unless you are a ***** like me!
