A Crazy Fly

A crazy fly, bouncing to and fro,
And flying from wall to wall.
No matter how extremely annoyed I get,
He won’t stop flying at all.

This crazy fly is getting on my nerves,
When you knock him, just knock him silly,
He’ll get up again and fly round my head
He’ll get up again, or will he?

This crazy fly’s a big black dot
You get dizzy from watching him fly forth and back,
 Common sense would tell you he’d soon get tired,
Common sense is what this fly lacks.

He just hit the blades of a moving fan,
I don’t see the crazy fly no more.
OOPS! I think I spoke too soon,
Now he’s only crazy times four!
