Somewhere In The World

It feels great to be somewhere Floating around like a lost pear In a field. Being at the very top Can be dangerous and lonely Gravity can be an enemy At that height. The last stop Is when you hit the ground Weighing about 200 pounds At ninety miles per hour You're hurt to the core It is awesome to be floating At a safe level. Things Change fast at high speed There is a time to lead To gain experience, there's a time To follow A better tomorrow It's better to collect dimes In lieu of amassing pennies Wear and tear on the knees Can be detrimental to one's wealth Nothing is more valuable than good health Flying a colorful kite is more fun Than dropping a five pound fan On the head of countless fans Dancing wildly next to the vans.
