The head lies on the pillow, but the mind lays awake.
It courses through the events of the day
Left right left right
The tempo remains within the head
The cheers, the yells,
The songs, the beats
The constant thump of the boots
Left right left right
Curses swears they fly around
Over under sidewards and yonder
Green brown black and white
Left right left right
Perspiration drips down the brow
Sways gently over and yet clings on
Clouding my vision
Power of a drop of sweat.
Over under sideways and yonder
And the constant throbbing of the heart
And the flow of blood coursing through the veins
Left right left right
