Tip Top TowerA Poem by Andy RuffettA climb up the Eiffel TowerTip, top, Let’s go to the top of the tower Tip top, Let’s go to the top of the tower Where women and men all strive for the power Tip, top, Let’s go to the top of the tower
Tip, top, Let’s go to the top of the tower Tip, top, Let’s go to the top of the tower It’s open all day, you climb by the hour Tip, top, Let’s go to the top of the tower
Step, step, We’re heading up to the top of the tower Step, step, We’re heading up to the top of the tower We climb up the steps to show we’re not cowards Step, step, We’re heading up to the top of the tower Step, shake, We’re pretty high up on the tower Step, shake, Wow, this is a pretty tall tower But we’ll keep walking up because heights are no matter Step, shake, Let’s keep heading up that tower
Step, trip, I missed a step of the tower Step, trip, It’s probably because all this climbing’s made me tired But no matter, I’m fine, let’s move up that tower Step, trip, It’s okay, I’m a little bit tired
Step, stop, We’re almost at the top of the tower Step, stop, Just let me rest, we’ve been walking for hours We’re almost there I can feel it, can’t you? Step, stop, just let me rest for a while
Step, gasp, Wow, we’re at the top of the tower Step, gasp If my legs weren’t shaking, I’d stand here for hours We made it all the way up and I’m in desperate need of a shower Step, gasp, Man, what a beautiful tower
Step, step, shake, What was that, the wind or the tower? Step, step, shake, Well it can’t fall down, it’s been standing for years But maybe I’m thinking we should head down the tower Step, step, shake, Wow, but seriously, it can’t be the tower
Run, step, step, We’re almost at the bottom Run, step, step, I slipped down on my bottom And now my back is shot and this is a problem Run step, step, I need to reach the bottom
Hobble, step, hobble, I can see the ground Hobble, step, hobble, This pain is unbearable But at least now we can say that we tackled That damn stupid tall difficult tower of Eiffel © 2011 Andy Ruffett |
