Am
So I sat in the attic, a piano at my nose,
Em7E7
And the wind played a dreadful cantata (cantata, cantata)
Am
Sore was I from the crack of an enemy's hose,
Em7E7
And the horrible sound of tomato (tomato, tomato)
Am7Dm7
Ketchup (ketchup), soup and puree (soup and puree),
Am7
Don't get left behind (don't get left behind)
Am7Dm7
Ketchup (ketchup), soup and puree (soup and puree),
(Am)
Don't get left behind
AAAm/F#Fmaj7
(Don't get left behind, don't get left behind, don't get left behind)
AmEm7
When a rattle of rats had awoken,
E7Am
The sinews, the nerves and the veins
AmEm7
My piano was boldly outspoken,
E7Am
In attempts to repeat it's refrain
AmAm/GAm/F#
So I stood with a knot in my stomach,
AmEm7E7
And I gazed at that terrible sight
AmDm7
Of two youngsters concealed in a barrel,
F7E7Am
Sucking monkberry moon delight
Dm7Am7
Monkberry moon delight, monkberry moon delight
Dm7Am7
Monkberry moon delight, monkberry moon delight

(E7*) Am
Well, I know my banana is older than the rest,
AmEm7E7
And my hair is a tangled beretta (beretta, beretta)
Am
When I leave my pyjamas to Billy Budapest,
AmEm7E7
And I don't get the gist of your letter (your letter, your letter)
Am7Dm7
Catch up! (catch up!), cats and kittens (cats and kittens),
Am7
Don't get left behind (don't get left behind)
Am7Dm7
Catch up! (catch up!), cats and kittens (cats and kittens),
