The tapping of that spoon, now
it's chewin' on my last nerve
It's making the cat in that ugly little chair
twitch its tail in a most obnoxious way
And the obnoxiousness is stabbing
that spot at the base of my neck
that makes my blood run cold
and its chewin' on that last nerve
(will repeat)
Do you really want to mess with me
in this state of pure annoyance, can't ya see
that spoons and cats and chairs and tails
are not my favorite things right now
Can't ya see? Can't ya see?
What's wrong with me
I'm not the person you think I'd be
So stop the tapping and the tail
and kindly remove that ugly chair
That dripping of the faucet, now
is making my knee itch right there
And the itch is now down on my foot
right were I cannot reach it
And I'm getting quite annoyed right now
I would like to run away from here
that clock on the wall is staring at me
And it's making my knee itch right there
(repeat)
Please don't think I'm crazy, now
it's a thing I cannot help, you see
That book on the shelf is growing legs
and I think that's chewin' on that nerve
And the spoon is feeling painful
cause you don't understand me
and the twitching tickles that itch
that refuses to go away
And what the hell are you here for?
Did I invite you in?
The color of that shirt you wear
makes me want to chase that book cause the
desmeanor of that clock is frightenin'
Don't you hear the screaming
that's coming from the attic?
I wasn't the one who told you this
but it's that book that sprouted legs
It chased me and screamed that it
would chop my hands off if I touched it
So I threw the spoon and it followed
(repeat)
