When crossing the street
Better be quick on your feet
The bikerettes are on the move
In their vehicles of blue
With wheels of two

Hats, trousers and hoodies
Maybe even a few cookies
Because it’s time to play hookie

When you want to avoid that grind
But a manual pedaller
May be a great leveller
When your pulse needs elevating
And your blood, circulating

Where there is a lamppost
There is a will
The best parking host
For a bike to stay still

For every gal and fellow
Driving by and waving hello

I want to ride my bicycle
I want to ride my bike
Snow, hail or rain trickle
I am none too fickle
I want to ride my bike

A stroll in the heat of summer
Looking for a place to recover
Taverns and restaurants beckoning
A cold drink for thirst lessening
