Troopy's Blues

I keep the night light on

'cause my parents are gone.

Think I'm gonna cry,

'cause I don't know why.

I make a lot of noise

when I play with my toys.

I better try to settle down.

That's what they're always tellin me.

Something about this child is coming undone.

I bounce off the walls.

And now I sit in the halls.

It's looking pretty bleak.

Let's go and play some hide and seek.

Looks like we got a kid who's a step behind.

I'm gonna miss that kid.

I'm gonna miss that kid.

I talk kind of fast

(I swear I mean it I'll try not to do it again I promise)

Better go to my room.

Before they lower the boom.

I hear the sounds of

dreams breaking down

and it's getting late

I hope this nightmare's winding up soon.

I'm gonna miss that kid.

I'm gonna miss that kid.
