lyrics

The thing with my cat’s paws is: it’s fine for raking, it doesn’t grab much
Aghast, Batman pauses at the sight of his baneful touch
Until he proceeds with a stroke of his claws
But merely ruins all that falls in his paws
And as the saying goes...

One must avoid pauses lest one glimpse how putrid a wreck
Have our litter boxes become
Chase, pounce, bite the stupid toy
One must avoid pauses lest one glimpse how hopeless a wretch
Has everyone of us become
Run, run, run
Run, run, run, gotta catch the last bus

Once a clowder took my heart captive
Now it looks just like a kitchen sieve
And if I stutter, enter anguish
So now I’m restless, restless
A flame you can’t extinguish

One must avoid pauses lest one glimpse how putrid a wreck
Have our litter boxes become
Chase, pounce, bite the stupid toy
One must avoid pauses lest one glimpse how hopeless a wretch
Has everyone of us become
Run, run, run
Work, work, work, gotta work your ass off

There’s a quitter in me that just wants to cuddle and purr
Well, that’s for lazy-ass losers
Not me, I’m an achiever
Not to brag
But I’m this close to mastering the subtle art of transmuting gold into lead
I’ll take a break when I’m dead!
