I’m on my way to Manchester

I’m going by the tram

Heading for a pasta place

Serving more than tasty Spam

I saw an Outward tram appear

heading for the BBC

And looked forward to its appearance

on its way to Piccadilly

The station announced – 6 Minutes

for the piccadilly tram – the norm

but the time it passed much quicker

and i felt all fuzzy and warm

But then – the clouds in distance

appeared in patchwork grey

as station board announced

an abrupt delay

A coach was picking us up

As the tram was not yet seen

Colours of Heritage Salford

Gold and Olive Green

And passengers all smiled

and some they even cheered

as inspectors went looking for the missing tram

its disappearance – weird
