Scheming

I know what you’re scheming,
You have been privately dreaming.
Eyes soon will be streaming,
Room full of jewels, quietly gleaming.
Know what you are thinking,
I must have been drinking.
I know what you’re scheming,
I caught you dreaming.

Were you at the door?
Thought you were knocking,
I couldn’t be sure.
I sit on the floor, quietly rocking,
You’ve seen it before.

Smoke, know where the fire is,
I read all your diaries.
Feeding the flames, pouring on water,
Running away but now I caught ya.
Dragged kicking and screaming,
I must have been steaming.
I know what you’re scheming,
I caught you dreaming.

Were you at the door?
Thought you were knocking,
I couldn’t be sure.
I sit on the floor, quietly rocking,
You’ve seen it before.
