I was sitting at the laundromat the other day watching the clothes spinning round and round.

People were busy going in and out.

Clothes being stuffed into the machines, taken out, folded and done.

I thought I heard "I Am The Walrus" playing in my head.

Saw my handphone looking lonely.

So, I prompted ChatGPT to write me an amusing song in the vein of the Beatles number describing a dutiful husband waiting for the clothes at a local laundromat in Malaysia.

It duly obliged :)

I Am The Clothes Man

I am he, as you can see, where I must be.
Watching clothes spin, like a laundry ballet,
Waiting for my wife's laundry day.

Sitting at the laundromat chair, Waiting for the clothes to appear,
Detergent scent, Tuesday so mundane,
Wishing for my laundry, what a pain.

I am the clothes man, They are the clothes folks,
I am the waitin' one,
Wash, rinse, spin, repeat, what a joke.

Wearing my old, worn-out attire, Fellow laundry waiters, a motley choir,
See how they stare at the tumbling dryer,
See how they sigh, I'm waiting, I'm tired.

Socks in a pile, like socks in the sky, See how they tumble, oh my, oh my,
I'm waiting for my laundry, I'm crying,
Wishing for dry clothes, oh so trying.

So if the dryer doesn't take too long, I'll finally join the sun's warm throng,
I am the clothes man,
They are the clothes folks,
I am the waitin' one,
Wash, rinse, spin, repeat, what a joke
