Lyrics

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
 Getcha 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 DMV
 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
 Getcha 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 going back
 But hey now you don't feel better
 As you drift off in the dark
 Maybe this Jack the ripper lied
 And you died
