The tale of an eccentric old man and his need for companionship.
A long time ago
(or maybe just a year)
a man lost his mind
and cut off his own ear.

He was a lonely man
in a cemetery house.
His only friend was Jerry,
a gleaming,pure white mouse.

But every Friday night
he`d sneak away from Jer,
and go into the graveyard
(dressed as flashy as Cher)

He'd dig up some old buddies
that died long before he.
Then he'd set up a table
and pour all of them tea.

A man lost his mind
and then cut off his ear.
But that was a long time ago
(or maybe just a year)
