Spinning In Circles

Am I Drunk?

I just keep spinning around and around,

I'm sure I look just like a clown,

Faster and faster,

Not slowing down;

Then CLUNK!

I fall down.

Around, around, around, and around;

Now, I'm spinning on my head,

Upside down!

The beating of my heart,

Bump, bump, bumpety-bump!

If I spin any faster,

I'll fall down in a lump!

Around and around, I still go,

The world is spinning;

I now have vertigo.

I feel like I'm on a rollercoaster,

But I only spin faster,

Go a bit slower?

No, go quicker!

Then...

Crash, bang, boom, thud;

I come crashing to the floor,

Am I drunk?
