The Parking Shuffle

Miami traffic's backed to the hilt

Our Uber's sweatin', spinnin' wheels in guilt

We're late, we're lost, and the clock don't care

This concrete jungle's a gridlock snare

"Where's the boat?" I shout in vain

He shrugs and points through the pouring rain

Three big ships all lined in a row

"Pick one," he says - "I gotta go!"

It's the parking shuffle, welcome to the show

You'll hike a mile, maybe more - who knows?

Dragging bags through puddles knee-deep

Cruise clothes soaked, and we ain't got no sleep

The right dock was back a mile or two

Now we're soggy, mad, but still pushin' through

It's the parking shuffle, baby - welcome aboard

Hope you like your chaos gourmet and poured

We passed the right boat, didn't even wave

Now we're wandering lost like tourists brave

Kids are crying, grandma's drenched

My flip-flop's busted, my back is wrenched

"Deck five, please!" says the check-in crew

"Sir, this is twelve - you're way off cue"

Elevators full, the hallway's tight

Our cruise vacation starts with a fight

It's the parking shuffle, welcome to the dance

A Miami mess and a soggy stance

If you find the boat, you've already won

But getting there's half the un-fun

With bags in tow and a broken phone

We made it, soaked to the bone

It's the parking shuffle - yeah, and we paid full fare

For this soggy journey to the sea and air

Next time we'll fly... or maybe teleport

But for now, bon voyage - from the terminal court
