The Boom- Boom Song

I panic, heart goes boom-boom -boom
as I pass John, who says, "Hey, May!"
A flower nods a bright new bloom.
I panic, heart goes boom-boom-boom
when I pass kids whose rockets zoom
to gray blue sky , away, away !
I panic, heart goes boom-boom-boom
as I pass John, who says, "Hey, May ."

When I draw near the leafy gloom
knee- deep in in flowers there I stray
through roses, lilies in full bloom .
When I draw near the leafy gloom
his face before my third eye looms ;
his smiles, his eyes and voice so gay.
When I draw near the leafy gloom
knee- deep in in flowers there I stray.

No, I must be at home , my room ;
why waste my time along the way ?
I cannot stop at leafy gloom .
No, I must be at home , my room ;
I cannot watch the sea or spume,
nor have I time to rove today.
No, I must be at home , my room ;
why waste my time along the way ?

At last I reach my home, my room
computer types away, away .
Here lies my heaven and its doom.
At last I reach my home, my room
no more to stray ,no more to zoom,
I'll be at home day after day.
At last I reach my home, my room
computer, types away, away .
