Fire Drill

When was our playground ever so quiet?

When was our playground not a chaotic riot?

When did the playground give me such a thrill?

When we stood very still for our monthly school fire drill.

I heard a breeze strum on the tetherball strings.

I heard the wind whistling through all the swings.

I heard the monkey bars make a toot and a trill,

When we stood very still for our monthly school fire drill.

Bridge:

What wonderful wonders on the school ground I found,

I saw unknown sights, and I heard every sound.

My teacher was silent and my classmates were fine,

When we stood in that fire drill line.

I felt the sunshine bounce off of my nose.

I smelled the tacos from the lunchroom windows.

Who knows the splendors you might miss until,

The whole school stands still,

And I hope that yours will,

At your monthly school fire drill.
