So I sat in the attic A piano up my nose And the wind played a dreadful cantata (cantata)
Sore was I from the crack of an enemy's hose And the horrible sound of tomato (tomato)
Ketchup (ketchup) Soup and puree (Soup and puree) Don't get left behind (get left behind)
When a rattle of rats had awoken The sinews, the nerves and the veins My piano was boldly outspoken, in attempts to repeat its refrain
So I stood with a knot in my stomach And I gazed at that terrible sight Of two youngsters concealed in a barrel Sucking monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight Monkberry moon delight
Well, I know my banana is older than the rest And my hair is a tangled beretta When I leave my pajamas to Billy Budapest And I don't get the gist of your letter (your letter)
Catch up! (catch up) Cats and kittens (cats and kittens) Don't get left behind (get left behind)
