Kaboom
How many of you have done this?
You go into another room
To get something really important
Suddenly your mind goes KABOOM!
In the lightning flash of a instant
You haven't a clue why you're there
You rack your brain for the answer
Just stand there with a vacant stare
So back to the room you came from
Hoping something will click
For sure your mind will recover
You start feeling dizzy and sick
What if you can never remember?
Go to your grave not knowing why
You got up to go there for something
But your brain feels like it's fried
Sometimes it renders man useless
Their existence productive no more
Dribbling and mumbling “what was it?”
This feeling you can't ignore
Then as you're ascending to heaven
Your life is paraded before you
In a flash you scream out, “I've got it!”
“I was headed for the loo!”
