Mister Mailman

Monday; a work day, which means I'm home alone

Inside, feeling lonely, nibbling on a chicken bone

Shouldn't have this, I know, but I got into the trashcan

There's nothing else to do; no one here to say, "that's rash, man!"

Ears prick up; now excited, I hear a familiar sound

Rush quickly to the window, but the red car lets me down


Mister Mailman should surely be coming by soon...

Although, I wonder: will it be 'fore or after noon?

I want to go and greet him; I want to say-- Oh!

Lo and behold, there he is! Right on his way-o!

Meet me, Mister Mailman! Through the door I'm charging-- WHY

ARE YOU RUNNING?! GET BACK HERE! I JUST WANT TO SAY HI!!

Not a dog by the way...
