PLEASE LEAVE IT RIGHT NOW!!

You came to stay, to get away. from your life's obstacles!
You fit right in, and did begin, to understand our space--
but there's no room--we can't work major miracles,
and so you had to come into our world, to find a place!

You are related; you fit well within this wild, strange milieu,
with our big cats and four adults--you will add right to our zoo!
We are fast-paced, a little nuts: welcome to our show!!
You say that we're a little much, and that you just don't know

if you'll fit in this crazy gang--well, you just wait and see!
We've made a place, someone's moved out--and now you're leavng, too??
Give us a try, don't pass us by, 'til you see what can be!!
But off you go!! We'll miss you so! We hope life's good to you!

You're really neat--we're much alike!! We don't want you to take a hike
but we must ask you now to leave, or add a room to this small house;
we must have you go on right now! this hard decision we don't like--
dear old house is far to small--and please leave it right now!!
