After all, I am the Caretaker
I’ve put that monster to bed ages ago
yet, so much work left to be done
seven pages past twenty one
a guest in my own skin I’ve become
but baby we all get a little stir crazy in this hotel
the walls they babylon and on
and on and on and on and on and...
somebody hit the juke
a smooth number or two
swinging, swaying, somebody saying
wonderful party, isn’t it?
sewer rats, kitty cats yeah
wonderful party, isn’t it?
sewer rats, kitty cats,
and dandelion lovers all dance with one another
foxtrot, box-step, turn, and promenade
I say its about time we drop this facade
we all know for my racing mind
there is one sure solution to find
sweating there in front of me
that rabid dog that bit me
wonderful party, isn’t it?
sewer rats, kitty cats yeah
wonderful party, isn’t it?
sewer rats, kitty cats,
and dandelion lovers all dance with one another
the man is back in bloom
red faced glorious return
stark raving lunatic drunk
here’s johnny!
