Round and round,
My life is going in circles.
Round and round,
Nothing is ever different.
Round and round,
It’s the same thing every day.
Round and round,
When will something different happen.
Round and round,
I just want out.
Round and stop!
If you can’t do something then I will.
Zig! , Zag! , Twist!, Turn!, Halt! Squiggle!
Circles are boring.
Shapes are boring.
I don’t want to be the record that just repeats!
I want to be the remix that changes everything up!
I don’t want to go down one straight path.
I want to drift into a hundred curvy paths leading in the same direction.
Round and round, Humph!
How about I just go wherever my heart takes me.
