Buzz, buzz, buzz,
Goes the fly on the wall.
Must you stay in this room?
I can't stand you at all!
Travel far to your friends,
Where the fly lamp is.
Or I'll pick up my bat,
And I WILL NOT MISS!
You're as sly as a snake,
More annoying than the rat.
Do not make your home here,
Like the cat on the mat.
What you do to my food,
I can barely say.
It's insulting and grotesque,
You do it every day!
So buzz away now,
Or I'll bring out the bat.
You'll be gone soon enough,
And that'll be that!
Buzz, buzz, buzz,
Goes the fly on the wall.
Must you stay in this room?
I can't stand you at all!
Just a few steps closer,
Just a few...
Until, until,
Only one step left.
You'd better be careful..
Or you
May
Go
SPLAT!!!

Flies and other bugs annoy the heck out of me!
Funny write, and true. I love the title.
Don't you wish this poem could get rid of annoying flies?!

I'd like to say I've never had this problem with a fly, but you know...I think most of us have at some time in life. This is really cute and I can so relate to it

I'd hate to be the fly on the wall in your room! LOL. Nicely turned and delightfully comic.

I love this part:
What you do to my food,
I can barely say.
It's insulting and grotesque,
You do it every day!
I thought the full extent was cute and a joy to read.
I was able to imagine the situation, funny funny funny.

Yes, flies can be so annoying. Of course, one can think of many different types of flies with this write, but you did a fabulous job, getting rid of this particular one.

Light and slightly comedic, an easy read.
