I hired some scaffolding today
I cant believe how much it sways
I'm up here now above the cloud
To near the airplanes ....for crying out loud
I think I can here my knees a knocking
Or is it just the scaffolding rocking
How I wish I was on the ground
Being up here is too profound
My prognosis isn't good
Why am I standing up here on this wood
A trapeze artist I am not
Why am I up here what a clot
I cant believe how much I'm stuck
I really feel I'm out of luck
Now the wind is howling round my knees
And my hay fever is making me cough and sneeze
I really don't think this is a good idea
Dangling here in total fear
The light is beginning to fade quite fast
Perhaps I should release my grasp
No but hold on tight I really must
This scaffolding I cannot trust
I really am in a bit of a state
As I stand up here what is my fate
My mobile phone begins to ring
I try to answer it for my sin
I call out loud I'm really stuck
But I don't seem to be having any luck
Because suddenly I lose my grip
My mobile phone decides to slip
Right to the ground......I Swear ......oh flip.....
As I hang up here like a clown
I tell myself don't look up or down
A noise then trembles in my ear
A fire engine is nearly here
A sigh of relief ....I will soon be down
There saving me from a nervous breakdown
But to my shock it turned right off
Is the world giving me a telling off
For being up here and showing off
As I reavaluate my position
The light of day is in transition
My only friend is this bent old ladder
And I really want to relieve my bladder
When I thought everything was lost
A voice calls out of the dark and frost
What are you doing up there so late
I'm stuck up here
help me down please mate
I'm down at last this trauma past
My scaffolding mayhem gone at last
So take heed from me
You've read my plea
Stay on the ground don't trapeze like me
