My Heart Goes BOOM!

Smarty Party! Haunted house. We take turns in front. ...After you. No, no. After YOU. Footsteps creaking down the hall, A shadow sliding up the wall— My brain's got an alarm inside, It rings before I say, "Let's hide!" It doesn't wait for me to think, It gets me ready in a blink! Every part says, "I've got you!" All at once, the whole way through! My heart goes BOOM! BOOM! Racing like a drum in the haunted room! Ohh, that's my body getting ready, Ready to protect me! My heart goes BOOM! BOOM! A painting's eyes slide left, then right— I grab my friends and hold on tight! Two little glands sit on my kidneys like hats, Out pours adrenaline, just like that! A chemical messenger, quick as a flood, It shouts, "Get ready!" all through my blood! My heart speeds up, my breathing too, Bringing my muscles oxygen and fuel! My heart goes BOOM! BOOM! Racing like a drum in the haunted room! Ohh, that's my body getting ready, Ready to protect me! My heart goes BOOM! BOOM! Ba-BOOM, ba-BOOM! Oh-oh-oh! Ba-BOOM, ba-BOOM! Oh-oh-oh! Around the corner, floating white— A GHOST! We hide behind a knight! A tiny knight! A tiny knight! It hides one elbow. Not quite right! My muscles tighten, head to toe, All set to jump, all set to go! But wait—that ghost is a sheet on a string! My alarm went off for a pretend thing! Out the door, the night is still, The calm-down crew takes time to chill: My heart slows down, my breathing too, My muscles loosen—whew, whew, whew... Next time it booms, I know, you see: My body's looking out for me. My heart goes BOOM! BOOM! Racing like a drum in the haunted room! Ohh, that's my body getting ready, Ready to protect me! My heart goes BOOM! BOOM! Ready to protect me! My heart goes BOOM! BOOM! Ba-BOOM, ba-BOOM! Oh-oh-oh! Ba-BOOM, ba-BOOM! Oh-oh-oh! Okay... again? I'll go first! ...Give my knees a minute.
