Office hours

Open most days about 9 or 10
Occasionally as early as 7,
but some days as late as 12 or 1
We close about 5:30 or 6:00
Sometimes, as late as 11 or 12
Some days, or afternoons,
We aren't here at all,
and lately I've been here
just about all the time, except
When I'm someplace else, but
I should be here then, too.
