The Palace in My Head

Palace in my head — let's go! (hey!) Walk it room to room, that's how I know!

(check it) Big silly pictures, one per room, walk it door to door and the list go BOOM — scratch! I never lose it, watch me prove it, hide it in a house and the memory move it!

Knock-knock front door — boom! — a PENCIL ten feet tall! He bows me in, he waves, can't miss him, not at all! Roll to the couch — KERSPLAT! — a big fat APPLE drop, bouncing on the cushions and it juuust won't stop!

Palace in my head — let's go! (hey!) Walk it room to room, that's how I know! Pencil... Apple... here we go — walk it room to room, that's how I know!

Splash to the bathtub — my LIBRARY BOOK takes a soak, blowin' bubbles, turnin' pages, gigglin' like it's a joke! Tiptoe (shhh) to the bedroom — my GYM SHOES in the bed, snorin' like two stinky logs with a pillow on each head!

Wilder that I picture it, the harder it's to miss — so go BIG and go silly, lock it down like this!

Palace in my head — let's go! (hey!) Walk it room to room, that's how I know! Pencil! Apple! Book! Shoes! — yo! Walk it room to room, that's how I know!

Pencil, Apple, Book, and Shoes — I kept the whole long row, walk it back through every room and watch the list still GLOW!
