067 - Doorbell

The imaginary doorbell

Woke me up again

It’s time for me to realise

I don’t have any friends

Or at least nobody who’d

Wake me in the morning

And bang on my door and yell

Without any warning

Not to mention the small detail

You have to understand

I’m not exactly easy to visit

I live on this secret island

In addition there’s the question

To avoid having to meet

Random people anywhere

I’ve got a massive naval fleet

There’s an Air Force and an Army

Looking after me

I live inside a bunker

With just my cats you see

So nobody was at my door

It was all inside my head

I’ll smash the doorbell anyway

And go back to my bed
