They call me Robert Petry and I live in New Rochelle
With my wife Laura and son Richie
But now my life's a living HELL
'Cause I tripped over the ottoman one too many times
I tripped over the ottoman until I lost my miiiiind
I was head writer for Alan Brady
Maybe you've seen his show
It's not very funny and it makes my ears bleed
This week's guest star isn't Danny Thomas
Our special guest star is Death!
Once I laughed at Buddy's jokes
But now my life's a living HELL
'Cause I tripped over the ottoman one too many times
I tripped over the ottoman until I lost my miiiiind
'Cause Morey Amsterdam can make a sane man crazy
Morey Amsterdam can make a nice guy kill
Morey Amsterdam can make a sane man crazy
Morey Amsterdam can make a nice guy kill
And I tripped over the ottoman one too many times
I tripped over the ottoman until I lost my miiiiind
What did you bring me daddy?
What did you bring me daddy?
What did you bring me daddy?
Well, I brought you Death!
