CAROUSEL

I pick the prettiest one
'cause I want the smoothest ride

I saw this one first
Step aside.

It starts off slow
but picks up the pace
Now it's a race
I can't often face

The brass ring always seems
too far to fetch
I've got to stretch!

But I'm fearful of falling
I hear my mother calling
"Don't get hurt!"

Caution be damned!
I'll make the most of my ride

I've been waiting long enough
Step aside.
