The anonymous poem The Centipede has appealed to me since I first encountered it in junior high school. At that time, I merely thought it was cute; now I appreciate it as a simple statement of how the mind can get in the way of -- everything!

My music to it sounds like a hymn with amusing words. The melody switches from major to minor when the centipede gets bewildered. This aspect of it could be used as an educational example.

The piece is so short, it could serve as an encore after an exhausting performance. I've put it here in several versions: SAB unaccompanied, and SATB unaccompanied, which can also be sung as a solo with piano accompaniment.



THE CENTIPEDE
anonymous

A centipede was happy quite,
Until a frog in fun said,
“Pray, which leg comes after which?”
This threw her mind in such a pitch,
She lay distracted in the ditch,
Consid’ring how to run.
