Solution

One day when I was studying late at night for my exams, I saw that the books were flying in my room. The lamp was singing a melodious song. Suddenly, the lights started blinking and there was rain outside. The table was running after the chair. The chair was playing the guitar. The topsy turvy scene blew my mind off.
