Looking Out My Back Door
Looking Out My Back Door
1.
Lookin' out my back dooor.
Eagles in our tree.
They make a lot of noise and they fish illegally.
They are homeless bums.
Something should be done.
They don't pay rent.
I wonder if these two gangster hooligans
are the ones who ate our cat.

Ophelia, like an eagle -
has flown away from me -
And now I can but wonder -
and guess where she may be -
I do not know the reason -
why she flew away from me -
Now every day I scan the sky -
I hope she hears my plea -
Come back, come back Ophelia -
Return once more to me -
Unless you're here beside me -
My soul cannot be free -
O, somewhere there's a nest -
High up in a tree -
Where she can roost and rest -
And look down on fools like me -
......Dashitall Hamlet
This tremendous flight of fancy can be found over on Feel Free To Laugh

Hamlet stole that from me and he screwed up the last line.
It should read;
"And crap on fools like you"
