little man at my window
knocking at two and three
knocking my gut til it explodes
knocking the walls asliver
knocking over me and over

little man called hope that comes calling
on me in rags with a tin can
little man is hungry and i am
greedy give him no food
little man little man
come knocking
killer
strange killer

little man again at the window
knows he that unboiling
pot called gandhi
knows he not me
or my wicked zoo
keeper of all the beasties i
at my wicked zoo

little man little man
you so persistent in the torrents of rain
no you for you you give
give you little man your house
to me for my elephants
they are come crashing
we all die will

little man called hope that comes calling
knocking at two and three
desperate he
gluttonous i keeping my sloths
at bay
they attack men holy
they attack meanly men holy
they me attack for meat
sloths deadly

little man you limbs all akimder
you always about you
you so good

little man hard knocker at the window
broke with his fists of hope it
all the fishes escape flee
via the window
then the deer
then the deer and squirrel
little man broke you my window
stole you my beasties
wicked zoo my is empty
alone i am
know you not i still.
