 I got  to get back to the house
 There's a warm  chair where the cat  has been
 I feel a little better  when I'm back at the house
Hope  I haven't lost  my keys
 I been thinking  about the police
Jelly  filled for justice,  please (also: coffee filled)
 | / / / / | / / / / |
 
 (Main Theme)
 I'm standing  here in the kitchen
Wonder  if I'm hungry  at all
Right  there, open the icebox
Wonder  if I can eat  it all
 | / / / / | / / / / |
 
 Final Lyrics:
 My eyes  can't see through this metal  door
Mouth  just ate an hour  before
Stomach  can't remember what food  is for
 Haven't listened  to my belly in a year or more
