Oh, well, a-bless my soul, but what's wrong with me?
I'm itchin' like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Hmm, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
… Oh, well, my hands are shaky, and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck?
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Hmm, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
… Well, please, don't ask me what's upon my mind
I'm a little mixed up, but I feel fine
When I'm near the girl that I love best
My heart beats, so it scares me to death
… When she touched my hand, what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Hmm, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
… My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this body of mine
That's to have that girl that I love so fine
… When she touched my hand, a-what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Hmm, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
… Hmm, ooh, yeah, yeah, I'm all shook up

C.: Well, I suppose that I should go to the scot house and tell my best human bud, d.c. scot, good-bye since I’m returning to my home planet, The Planet of the Talking Cats to run against my ex-husband, Tom for Supreme Rule of the Planet.
That leaves my husband, Tucker Tucker Two, a.k.a. The Cat Fighter Formerly Known As The Tuxedo (who really needs a shorter nickname) Now Simply Known As T Because Triple T Was Already Taken as the presidential candidate on the independent ticket for the U.S. presidency in November.
I must be loyal to my home planet, though, because The Supreme Ruler of the Cat Galaxy, Meow Z. Tongue has ordered me to do so.
Meow found me when I crashed landed here on Planet Earth after being exiled by my ex-husband, the king, for eating his Rodent Prepared for Royalty. However, I was the queen, so how was I to know that it wasn’t my supper instead of his?
Anyway, Meow says that Tom has lost his mind and needs to be beaten in the next election. Meow thinks that I have the best chance to defeat Tom, since I’ve been off the planet for three years. He reasons that, in that amount of time, I haven’t made anybody angry so they will all vote for me. I hope he’s correct.
I’ll just walk down to d.c.’s house from Wayne Manor. It’s only one-half way down the street, so I won’t take my car like I usually do. I want to drag this out as long as possible because it makes me sad to have to say goodbye to all my friends on this planet.
“d.c., are you home?” That’s odd, the door is open and no one is answering. I’ll just go in and see what’s going on. Oh, no! d.c. is passed out and surrounded by drug books. I know he’s a nurse, but this looks really bad, unless he was doing research for one of his classes.
Hmm. No, I don’t remember him saying anything about taking a pharmacology class, but his drug book is open, along with another one entitled “Drugs for Dummies.” He has the drug carfentanil highlighted and underlined. I wonder if he took that drug? That would explain a lot, since he thinks I’m a talking cat from another planet. His perspective is all shook up, or maybe he is on drugs…Oh, wait, I am a talking cat from another planet.
Oh, no! It says here that an amount of this drug that’s less than a grain of salt can kill and average-sized man, and d.c. is just a little larger than average, so he could have taken too much of it and killed himself. No, he’s still breathing, but I cannot wake him up with painful tactile stimuli. Oh, he’s stirring.
d.: Ow! Why did ya stick yo claws in ma face, li’l lady cat?
C.: That’s all the time we have for today, folks. Please join us tomorrow, here on X, for another episode of Cal.E.’s Korner.
