In case of emergency

In case of emergency, pull this handle,
Out of the roof, people do scramble,
In case of emergency, smash with this hammer,
Out of the window, people do clamber,
In case of emergency, push that red button,
Out of the bus, people explode.

In case of emergency, pull the red toggle,
Out of the sky, people do fall,
In case of emergency, prepare for a jolt,
Out of the plane, people do vault,
In case of emergency, push that red button,
Out of the plane, people explode.

In case of emergency, try to find shelter,
Out of the supermarket, people run helter-skelter,
In case of emergency, hide underground,
Out of the sea, people crawl, half-drowned,
In case of emergency, push that red button,
Out of their houses, people explode.

In case of emergency, push that red button,
To set off a nuke, push that red button,
To destroy the world, push that red button,
To kill everyone, push that red button,
In case of emergency,
Don't pay any attention to me!

  1. Remindes me a bit of Doctor Who's 'The Christmas Invasion', with the blood control and the Big Red Button :D
    Very good poem!
