Pinball

Pinball 

Pull back the spring

And let go

The ball flies

Ringing off bumpers

Skating across rollers

Flying across the board

And when it falls

Is flipped back into play

Left

Right

Both together

Anything to stop 

The ball from exiting

The score counts

Higher and higher

And the excitement rises

But in a moment

The table is bumped

Everything goes tilt

No free games

No more balls

That’s it

Game over
