There was a day, there was a day I say

 

There was a day where my future was to be decided

 

Oh how I wished there was another way

 

I walked into the a room only to be greeted by countless stares

 

But sat down I did and acted as if I didn’t care

 

There she was that long necked women, standing as tall as a giraffe

 

She passed out the sheet which would decide my future

 

The paper stared at me as I stared back at it

 

The sound of pencil against paper filled the room

 

That day I truly felt my doom

 

My fingers were tapping the desk as fast as the wing beat of a hummingbird

 

I was an animal wrongfully trapped in a cage

 

My eyes stung from sweat, my feet were rapidly tapping the floor

 

I felt like my hands were about to fall of

 

I couldn’t take it, I couldn’t take it I say

 

Oh how nervous I was that day
