There It Goes Again

Suddenly it jumped from my head
Then from my shoulder to the floor
Without so much as a goodbye
It quickly scuttled out the door!

There it goes now, down the street
Well, you can't beat that with a stick
That was my determination
So now I have to call in sick!

Yeah, along with resolve. Like my, "get up and go, got up and went," sort of thing!...............80)
