Lord Willoughby’s Remarks
A caterpillar was crawling across my wall
Doesn’t he know just how small?
I guess it’s another tough one to call
Oh baby, you can kick me out the door
And I will never darken your door no more
I bought a two-way ticket, for sure
I got a message from the Inland Revenue
Politely asking me for remittance due
The next message wasn’t so polite
I got a letter begging me to take a loan
I was offered a holiday on the ‘phone
All these kind people just can’t wait
The caterpillar made it off the wall
I guess he just didn’t know how small
I hope he makes it, get wings and all
The wind blows a flurry across my eyes
There’s a certain light in the skies
There’s a place on the hill where I can sleep
