My friends call it one of my Toxic Dr. Silverstein poems.
You think I don't know you but I swear that I do
You are crazier than me and you know that it's true
You try to hide it but you do not succeed
I know cause I'm a peeper and I have seen
You had panties on your head and a shirt for a skirt
And where you had those heels really had to hurt
Oh don't you know a hat goes on your head
And why did you have place settings placed on your bed
I saw ice cream in your oven and butter stacked on your floor
And the way your couch was upside down I'd never seen before
You had your pillow and your blanket made up on the table
And out of all those canned goods shouldn't one of them have a label
You had paint upon your floors and carpet on your walls
And still I can not understand the grass growing in your halls
And why oh why no don't tell me why your cat was hanginh up there
Or even why God forbid your dog was wearing ladies underwear
Those fish were swimming round and round right there in your toilet
And those last chapters ripped out of your books.. why? Didn't want to spoil it
I watched you walk around in a parka in mid summer
And bikinis in the winter? Frost bite there would be a bummer
So now what was it you were saying about me again
Not like it really matters cause you're the crazy one my friend
