Play Riff over and over

Okay, let's just set the scene in a 
hospital.
Mip... mip... mip...
Frankel the mouse is there, on the 
bed.
Mip... mip... mip...

Riff
I've forgotten everything,
Riff
In my little mouse-sized bin.
Riff
In a county hospital,
Riff (to C)                  C
With a tiny bandage round my head.
                  D             C
You've just got a broken ankle,
         F              Riff
Snap out of it, Frankel.
Riff
Images are coming back to me,
Riff
When I close my eyes I see.
Riff
How I got my injury,
Riff(to C)                 C
Cause I attempted beastiality.
                   D          
Frankel, it's your past you're 
        C
seeing,
                 F               
You tried making love to a human 
Em
being.

Scod:  Yeah, but there's usually an 
instrument!
Gatesy:  That's true, there is.

Riff
Now I'm back in walking therapy,
Riff
And they're saying, \"Bend your 
knee, Katie, bend your knee\".
Riff
But my name is not Katie,
Riff
And I'll never throw a fuckin' 
frisbee.
