The Eclipse

Why is it gonna get so cold?
Why is it gonna get dark?
Why did it take me an hour
To find a place to park?

It's this thing everyone is talking about
It's on every persons  lips
We can't wait until eleven minutes past eleven
Then we'll see the total eclipse!

Don't look up at the sun
It'll make your eyes go funny
Spend a fortune on glasses and wotnot
They know how to make their money!

Grrr! It's so cold
And mega eerie
Ten minutes past eleven
One minute left nearly......

Yikes! IT's so bloody dark
very X files
This is what thousands of people have come to see
Some have travelled miles!

Oh look! the skys gone a beautiful pink
The birds are frantic, in a daze
The boats lit up so prettily
And i'm left in a haze

Suddenly someone turned the lights back on
I just wanna see more
I'm standing here huddled up
With friends, totally in awe!
