Once there was an Enchanted Ferris
Wheel.
It rotated on steel, and you could
make it a deal.
It sat by the ocean at the boardwalk
pier,
Sparkled in lights and squeaked
its gear.
When you got upon its passenger
car,
You could ride to the sky and catch
a star.
The conductor gave you a ticket for
a dime,
And you promised to have a grand
ole time.
By the time you landed, you could
change,
If you wanted to change, although
it felt strange.
Maybe your name, maybe your smile,
Maybe your hair, maybe your style.
Up in the air, you could see the
moon,
Little Boy Blue, and his silver
spoon.
Your perspective would never be the
same,
And the ride would be your claim to
fame.
You started out the old version of
you,
But then you became everything new.
So, take a trip on the Enchanted
Ferris Wheel,
Where all your wishes will soon be
real!
