Ten Little Friends
Harmony in Solitude: Ten Little Friends and the Joy of Disconnecting
Lyrics
I don't need no conversation
I prefer solitude over conversation.
I got everything I need
I have all that I require.
I'm happy sitting up here
I find joy in being alone.
With my ten little friends, Mr. Bones, and me.
Expressing contentment with companionship of ten inanimate objects, including "Mr. Bones."
I ain't going to the party
Declining an invitation to a party.
I don't want no cakes n' tea
Rejecting traditional party offerings like cakes and tea.
I'm happy sitting up here
Reiterating satisfaction in solitude.
With my ten little friends, Mr. Bones, and me.
Reaffirming contentment with ten inanimate companions, including "Mr. Bones."
I keep myself to myself
Choosing a private and isolated lifestyle.
And I disconnect the phones
Turning off communication devices, prioritizing solitude.
My ten little friends are playing piano
Attributing musical qualities to the inanimate objects, particularly playing piano.
Mr. Bones is on trombone.
Specifically mentioning "Mr. Bones" playing the trombone.
I don't need no conversation
Repeating the sentiment of not needing verbal communication.
I got everything I need
Emphasizing self-sufficiency and contentment.
I'm happy sitting up here
Reiterating happiness in being alone.
With my ten little friends, Mr. Bones, and me.
Expressing satisfaction with inanimate companions, including "Mr. Bones."
I don't need no television
Not relying on television for entertainment.
Ain't got time to watch TV
Declining to watch TV due to a busy lifestyle.
I'm too busy sitting here playing
Engaging in play with the ten inanimate friends, including "Mr. Bones."
With my ten little friends, Mr. Bones, and me.
Reaffirming satisfaction with inanimate companionship.
I keep myself to myself
Repeating the preference for a private and disconnected life.
And I disconnect the phones
Continuing to detach from communication devices.
My ten little friends are playing guitar and on bass is Mr. Bones.
Attributing musical qualities to the inanimate objects, particularly playing guitar, with "Mr. Bones" on bass.
