I'm giving up on certain things like bicycles and gardening And walking to the grocery store Because the rain has started in the city and though the greenery is pretty It's not enough to get me out the door 'Tis the season now of grey and brown, of giving up and sitting down And layering and wooly socks I'm celebrating solitude and eating soup instead of food And never walking more than seven blocks 'Cause I've got cats, and I've got Netflix I've got games, and I've got snack mix And I am gonna stay indoors for four or five months or more I'll have several five-blanket nights, forget to buy my Christmas flights And procrastinate Halloween As a consolation prize for heavy clouds that fill the skies There's pumpkin spice in everything Every morning it gets darker out, I'm gonna wear these markers out With all these lists of things I'll never do And when my motivation's gone, I'll order snacks from Amazon And try to knit a scarf for you 'Cause I've got cats, and I've got Netflix I've got games, and I've got snack mix And I am gonna stay indoors for four or five months or more cat keyboard solo, the notes of which are as follows: jump up an octave (except for the octave jump, go with the relevant note closest to that just played) I've got plans, I'm gonna make things If I get hungry, I might even bake things They say fall is only passing through But I don't really want it to 'Cause we've got cats, and we've got Netflix We've got games, and we've got snack mix And we are gonna stay indoors for four or five months or more NOTE: The above is the Weekly Song Wednesday version of 2013. For the Dimetrodon version of 2014, make the following changes: 1) In the first verse, "the city" becomes "my city". 2) In the third verse, add "and" before "a consolation prize". 3) The entire final verse, starting with "I've got plans," is omitted; the cat keyboard solo goes straight into the final Chorus.
