I woke up early before it was light
went outside for coffee and a smoke
to enjoy the cool morning air
what happened next really is no joke!
Leaning against my car
coffee behind me on the hood
I turn to take a sip
of that hot coffee so good.
A moth is sitting
on the rim of my cup
I swat at him twice
but he won't give up!
My morning cup of coffee
I didn't feel like sharing
The moth wont leave
now he's got me swearing!
I pick my cup up off the hood
and take a quick turn
the moth took a leap
and that coffee did burn!
He dove right at my head
that hot liquid spilled every where
as my arms were swatting
at him through the air!
Finally he left me at last
now I have less than half a glass
I am quite surprised
I didn't bust my ass!
I look around just to be sure
no one has seen me acting a fool
with a puddle of coffee at my feet
trying to act cool!
There sits five cats
looking at me like I'm crazy
Didn't even try to catch it
damn cats are much too lazy!
After a few seconds have gone by
that damn moth again charges at me
flying at my head
he just won't let me be!
He does this three times in a row
now my neighbors are outside
certainly thinking I have lost it
and there is no place to hide
My neighbors think I'm crazy
the cats think I have gone insane
and this moth for whatever reason
for me holds great disdain.
The moral of my story is
if a moth wants to share your drink
he won't drink much so let him
have some without so much a blink!
