So I sat in the attic, a piano at my nose
And the wind played a dreadful cantata    
(Cantata, cantata)
Sore was I from the crack of an enemy's hose
And the horrible sound of tomato
(Tomato, tomato)
Ketchup (ketchup)
Soup and puree (soup and puree),
Don't get left behind (get left behind)
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 out spoken,
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
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...)

Monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight...
