作曲Nellie McKay

My cat died and I quickly poured myself some gin

Did she die from old age or was it for my sins

God I loved her oh so much miss her little kitty touch

Does she miss me does she care Oh I miss her kitty stare

Do you have a little time would you like to ease my mind

Talk for hours and never stop chop your head off

Be a lighter person brighter person nicer

But you've heard it all before

So ding dong there's the doorbell

Hello man in white

He's gonna make you all well

Get you through the night

But hey now

You don't feel better

As you take your fresh bromide

Maybe this man of letters lied

Let me tell you 'bout a dream I had the other night

You were in it boy you sure gave me a super fright

I was walking down the street downtown by the D M V

You popped out behind a door it was odd you were on all fours

Do you have some time to spare you were barking at a bear

It said Hey you'd better stop chop your head off

Be a lighter person brighter person nicer

But you've heard it all before

So ding dong there's the doorbell

Hello man in red

He's gonna make you all well

Get you into bed

But hey now

You don't feel better

As you wake and slowly rise

Maybe this smooth jet-setter lied

Stick around one minute more I'm smarter than you think

Do I sound like an old bore oh man it's just the drink

I didn't always hit the gin there were times when I fit in

They'll never know how much I tried did I tell you my cat died

Do you have a little time would you like to feel sublime

Run away and never stop chop your head off

Be a lighter person brighter person nicer

But you've heard it all before

So ding dong there's the doorbell

Hello man in black

He's gonna make you all well

There's no goin' back

But hey now you don't feel better

As you drift off in the tide

Maybe this Jack the Ripper lied

And you died
