Can’t find my keys, can’t find my purse
It’s getting late, it’s getting worse
Toss the papers in the air
Clutter, clutter everywhere
Under tables, on the floor
How did this become a chore?
Need to find someone to help
Where’s the dog and what’s that yelp?
The cat’s asleep upon a pile
I guess I’ll be here for awhile
The telephone’s ringing off the hook
No time to waste, no time to look
I have to leave, I’m out the door
I can’t take this anymore!
