All over the world
Beyond the oceans and past the trees
Covered by darkness and hidden in shade
Dizzy Delilah is watching it all
Everything from houses to mice
From the clouds in the sky to the rocks at the beach
Going in circles has Delilah’s mind spinning
Her loops and flip flops are disorienting her
If she falls, she’ll start all over again
Just hope she doesn’t keep this going for too long
Kids shouldn’t spin in circles trying to beat boredom
Let them do things that don’t affect their health
Markers and crayons are what Delilah should be playing with
Not spinning until she makes herself sick
Opening her eyes, she sees everything as a blur
People are fuzzy and the grass below her isn’t there
Quite silly it seems to try what she’s doing
Regardless of how little she has to get done
Sick from twirling in endless circles
Tired from circling in mindless twirls
Under the hot sun laughing at her foolishness
Very soon Dizzy Delilah falls on the ground
Worried about how she’s feeling, teachers run to her side
Yellow and blue and pink and purple, Delilah’s world is all mixed up
Next time she’s bored, Delilah will play will dolls instead
