The Rollercoaster of Beethoven
Beethoven - we truly love to hear.
He may bring us sorrow or send us cheer.
It is like riding on a rollercoaster,
As we enter the mind of this great composer.
At times it may be slow and steady,
But what is to come? And are we ready?
You at first go up but then shoot down,
And you feel you'll crash right to the ground.
We go side to side and round and round.
We may loop the loop - go upside down.
As we have travelled on this crazy ride,
A funny sensation we feel inside.
As it ends, our nerves are quite shaken.
But our mind surely does awaken.
As it's a feeling we cannot ignore,
We must always come back again for more.

Your last line says it all, Stuart. If we're tired of Beethoven, we're tired of life.
