Intro

| Am | % | % |

Verse 1

So I sat in the attic, a piano up 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)

Bridge

Ketchup (ketchup), soup and puree (soup and puree),
Don't get left behind (don't get left behind)
Ketchup (ketchup), soup and puree (soup and puree),
[ Am ]
Don't get left behind

Verse 2

(variation)
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

Bridge

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

Chorus

Monkberry moon delight, monkberry moon delight
Monkberry moon delight, monkberry moon delight

Interlude

| Am | Am/G | Am/F# | Am/F E7 * |

Verse 3

[ E7 * ] Am
Well, I know my banana is older than the rest,
And my hair is a tangled beretta (beretta, beretta)
When I leave my pyjamas to Billy Budapest,
And I don't get the gist of your letter (your letter, your letter)

Bridge

Catch up! (catch up!), cats and kittens (cats and kittens),
Don't get left behind (don't get left behind)
Catch up! (catch up!), cats and kittens (cats and kittens),
Dm7 [ Am ]
Don't get left behind
