Alone

Where am I? Where are you? Am I just stuck here like glue? In this alleyway, Lonely and sad, How do I become so glad? I wish I had a home me just so Alone With the house I see in the distance, Can I go there? No, says my resistance, My parents are dead, And I have no bed, Why? Because I’m Alone Alone in my alley, so sad and lonely, Old, craggy and boney, Because I’m Alone There are people coming to me, Going to hug me, They will adopt me, And I will fill with glee A bed, two parents, and love galore, How could I ask for any more? Now that I’m loved and have a warm bed, And finally fed Well, I’m not Alone I feel happy, great Jiminy, plus, I’m not Alone Alone
