The Witching Hour

I wake up at three every morning The witching hour Is it the cat? Or something else? Maybe it is so I can have some thinking time Before the others get up. I hear a voice smirk. You live alone silly! If you think I can go back to sleep now You are as crazy as I am.

Possibly the thunk of a newsboy delivering your newspaper? Nothing to generate a rise, so roll over and go back to sleep! Aloha! Rico

True but if you hear voices, you hear voices, right Rico?
