The Rotowhirl Song Lyrics
The Rotowhirl by Lauri Ylonen
We'd stand around the “test your strength†games, the one with the big sledgehammer in the bell, and Andy would make fun of all the guys who were swinging away. And I was supposed to beg him for one of the huge stuffed bunnies. “Oh Andy Honey, please get me a bunny, please, please.†Finally Andy would step up to the big thermometer and take a swing. The indicator would rise a few inches and “Try again, weakling!†would flash. At this point Andy would start yelling that the game was wicked and demanding to see the manager.
We also went at the rotowhirl, the ride that plasters everyone against the walls of a spinning cylinder, and stretches their bodies into Dopplered blobs. Before the ride actually starts, there are a couple of awkward minutes while the attendant checks the motor and the riders, bound head and foot, stare at each other. This was the moment that Andy seized. He would start by looking around in a panick and then he would start to cry. “I don't wanna be on this ride, I've changed my mind; we're all gonna die.†The other riders would look around self-consciously. Should they help? He would then begin to sob uncontrollably.
I loved Andy. He would come over to my house and read from a novel he was writing; he would read all night. And I don't know if any of this book was ever even published.
I have never been one that hoped that Elvis is still hanging around somewhere, hiding, but I will probably always expect to see Andy reappear, someday.
