I’ve got an incredible headache
my temples are throbbing with pain
it feels like a fright train with two locomotives
is chugging about in my brain
I’m sure I can’t stand it much longer
my skull’s being squeezed in a vise
as regiments march to the blaring of trumpets
and thousands of tap-dancing mice
My head’s filled with horrible noises
there’s a man mashing melons inside
someone keeps drumming on bongos and plumbing
as porpoise thrash in the tide
An elephant herd is stampeding
a volcano is blowing its top
and if I keep hitting my head with this hammer
I doubt that my headache will stop
