So I sat in the attic, a piano at my nose,
Gm7
and the wind played a dreadful cantata
G7
(Cantata, cantata, cantata).
Cm
Sore was I from the crack of an enemy’s hose,
Gm7
and the horrible sound of tomato
G7
(Tomato, tomato, tomato).
Cm
Ketchup (Ketchup)
Fm
soup and puree (Soup and puree),
Cm
don’t get left behind (Get Left Behind).

Ketchup (Ketchup)
Fm
soup and puree (Soup and puree),
Cm
don’t get left behind
Cm-Cm7-Am7-Ab7-G7
(Get left behind).
Cm Gm7
When a rattle of rats had awoken,
G7 Cm
the sinews, the nerves and the veins.
Gm7
My piano was boldly outspoken,
G7 Cm
in attempts to repeat it’s refrain.
Cm
So I stood with a knot in my stomach,
Cm
and I gazed at that terrible sight
Fm
of two youngsters concealed in a barrel,
Ab7 G7 Cm
sucking monkberry moon delight.
Fm
Monkberry moon delight.

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
(Beretta, beretta).
When I leave my pajamas to Billy Budapest,
and I don’t get the gist of your letter
(Your letter, your letter).
Catch up! (Catch up!),
cats and kittens (Cats and kittens),
don’t get left behind (Get left behind).
Catch up! (Catch up!),
cats and kittens (Cats and kittens),
don’t get left behind (Get left behind).
