#3         UP IN THE ATTIC


Oh! my life is chaotic
And inside my home is immaculate
But up in the attic??

up in the attic

You may want to take off your glasses
Some may think it's (a mess )
It isn't clutter
But I otta
Straighten up and organize 

up in the attic those many things

Oh! my life is not pitiful
Nor am I callas to say
I have a lot of stuff in my attic

No, I'm not addicted
Or am I a hoarder
Just got a little disfuntion
above my living quarters

up in my attic there are many things

These things may be sentimental
Yeah, yeah it's not so anticquated
And honesty I just don't want to get rid of...

all the things up in the attic

                        I just don't want to get rid of
                       those old historical newspapers
           vintage glass lamp, only one of them no shade
                  rusty tarnish old golf clubs in their bag
            and I don't even play gulf anymore  " FOUR"
                     messy vintage record L P albums
  why? I keep them I don't know  I don't even own a record player
                        boxes of crafts and all that
                 wall paper samples and Christmas wraps
      old suitcases and folded towels many other things are all
 
 up in the attic

One day my family and I
will climb up the ladder
leaving the living room as we gather
we go higher together
to straighten, organize, and throw away and disgard everything

up in the attic
