The
other
morning
I
took
the
tramway,
heavily
laden,
I
was
just
coming
from
the
market,
and
at
the
sight
of
the
waiting
figures,
I
knew
immediately
that
the
hustle
and
bustle
hadn't
started
yet.
The
tram
was
full,
my
bag
was
heavy,
and
only
with
effort
did
I
squeeze
myself
into
the
carriage,
and
what
do
I
spy
at
the
other
end?
A
free
seat,
it
had
to
be
mine!
There's
only
one
thing
to
do,
stiffen
your
calves
and
get
in
there
quick,
the
old
woman
behind
me
has
a
similar
idea
in
mind.
Refrain:
Riding
the
tramway,
riding
the
tramway,
that's
my
greatest
joy,
riding
the
tramway,
riding
the
tramway,
that's
where
I
get
among
the
people.
I
squeeze
my
bags
into
my
neighbor's
side
and
grab
hold
of
the
jacket
of
the
man
in
front
of
me.
Suddenly,
the
tram
jerks
forward,
many
of
the
passengers
scream,
they're
in
shock.
What's
that
herb
doing
in
my
briefcase?
Tramway

Your
chives
are
in
my
cleavage,
I
think
I'll
have
to
give
you
a
piece
of
my
mind
right
now.
I
don't
like
that
kind
of
stuff
at
all.
Go
on,
move
on,
don't
just
stand
there
like
a
lump,
because
today
I
still
want
to
go
to
my
plot.

An
everyday
scene
on
the
tram...)
I
was
angry,
that's
for
sure,
my
seat
was
taken
in
a
flash,
my
temper
got
the
better
of
me,
I
had
a
fit
and
slapped
the
black
man.
When
I
finally
got
out
of
prison,
I
got
on
the
next
tram
and
went
home.
