The Girl in 14G lyrics

Just moved in to 14G

So cozy, calm, and peaceful

Heaven for a mouse1 like me

With quiet by the lease-full

Pets are banned, parties too,

And no solicitations.

Window seat with garden view

A perfect nook 2 to read a book

I'm lost in my Jane Austen when I hear

Say it isn't so

Not the flat below

From an opera wanna be

In 13G

A matinee of some cantata 3

Wagner's Ring 4

And Traviata 5

My first night in 14G

I'll put up with Puccini

Brew myself a cup of tea

Crochet until she's fini

Half past eight

Not a peep

Except the clock tick-tockin'

Now I lay me down to sleep

A comfy bed to rest my head

A stretch, a yawn, I'm almost gone when

Now the girl upstairs

Wakes me unawares

Blowing down from 15G

Her revelly 6

She's scattin like her name is Ella

Guess who answers a cappella?

I'm not one to

Raise my voice

Make a fuss

Or speak my mind

But might I query

Would you mind if

Could you kindly

Stop!

That felt good

Stop!

13, 15, 14G

A most unlikely trio

Not quite three part harmony

All day and night we're singing

I've had my fill of peace and quiet

Shout out loud, "I've changed my diet!"

All because of

14G
