Am
So I sat in the attic, a piano at my nose,
Em7 E7
And the wind played a dreadful cantata (cantata, cantata)
Am
Sore was I from the crack of an enemy's hose,
Em7 E7
And the horrible sound of tomato (tomato, tomato)

My piano was boldly outspoken,
E7 Am
In attempts to repeat it's refrain
Am Am/G Am/F#
So I stood with a knot in my stomach,
Am Em7 E7
And I gazed at that terrible sight
Am Dm7
Of two youngsters concealed in a barrel,

Sucking monkberry moon delight

Monkberry moon delight, monkberry moon delight

When I leave my pyjamas to Billy Budapest,
