The Snaking Monster

The snaking monster beckons

Lacking respect for gravity

Nought to sixty in seconds

Then it's pure depravity

The track, it falls away

We all scream and whoop

There's no time to pray

As we roll the loop de loop

How our stomach sinks

And yet, the heart, it flies

These are the best high jinks

High up in the skies

You are then battered left

Then you're shaken right

Shot into a cleft

And thrown out in flight

And just when you think

It's coming to the end

You countersink

Hurtle round a bend

One last dead drop

For this roller train

Breaking to a stop

You scream let's do it again!

There was an old man from Nantucket

Who rode the roller coaster rocket

The roller coaster banged

His testicles clanged

I won't tell you what he found in his pocket!
