Monkberry Moon Delight lyrics

So I sat in the attic,

A piano at my nose,

And the wind played a dreadful cantata.

Sore was I from the crack of an enemy's hose,

And the horrible sound of 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.

Catch up! (catch up),

Cats and kittens (cats and kittens),

Don't get left behind (get left behind)...

Monkberry moon delight...

Monkberry moon delight...
