Adventuring

Screen shut, homework done

Restless legs, it's only one

Everybody's not around

Or buried in the homework shroud

Kinda hungry, kinda not

Eat some chips, drink some pop

I know what I need to do today

I'll go adventuring!

Outside, rain or shine

I'll be sure to do it right

Jump in puddles, climbing trees

Chase a squirrel, race the breeze

So tired, coming home

Insides warm and fingers cold

I can't keep this smile off of my face

'Cause today was a perfect day

Next day, buried deep

Brain is fried, deprived of sleep

Daydreaming, dreaming real

Waking up for my next meal

Books shut, homework hate

Grumpiness needs to abate

I know what I need to do today

I'll go adventuring!

Outside, rain or shine

I'll make sure to do it right

Stomp in mud, skid on ice

Hit my head on branches twice

So tired, coming home

Insides warm and fingers cold

I can't keep this smile off of my face

'Cause today turned out to be great

Adventuring, good for the soul

Dig your way of your hole

Sleep or not, you need to breathe

Take it in and take your ease

Run a mile in muddy clothes

And don't care when you come home

Find a way to keep yourself sane

And go adventuring today!
