see the line in the dirt you will aim for.
down the rollercoaster hill and back up
don't look at the big water pipe at the bottom
you steer where you look
take a big breath
you've done this many times before
your body knows how to do this
just trust it and don't forget to breathe
ready, set, go
i take off at top speed down the hill.
heart racing
remember, use only small changes in steering
large ones will send us flying
and don't touch the brakes
or you will never make it up the other equally steep side
i streak down the hill with the line i chose as the only thing i see
make it to the bottom without crashing or braking and head up the other side
there is bean waiting for me
a huge grin on his face
