Stop Running Around in Circles!

Steven West
Don't run around in circles.
You'll never get anywhere.
Don't run around in circles
In your underwear.

Get dressed and ready for school!
No more fooling around in your room.

Stop that running around in circles.
My head is starting to ache.
Get going this very minute!
Your silliness I simply can't take.

Finally, you're ready for breakfast.
I'd applaud and give you a cheer,
But you're making me very upset.
Get those crayons out of your ear!

Will I ever survive this morning?
Yes, as soon as Jeffrey walks out the door.
And then I can collapse in bed
Or mop the kitchen floor.
