The Cat Song Lyrics

Recycle the same conversation over and over again

I just can't stop thinking about why I've got nothing to say

Watching the cat begging for food he knows that I can relate

Wondering when you're gonna throw a couple scraps my way

Never enough to get me through my life

Barely enough to get me through the night

You twist up my words like a tornado tangles a tumbleweed

Spinning around and around and around your intent to deceive

An endless nightmare of insecure and selfish schemes

Like when I sing you say I'm always slightly off the key

You're never gonna let me fly

You'll haunt me until the day that I die

Recycle the same conversation over and over again

I just can't stop thinking about how I'm just wasting away

I know you've got a couple tricks up your sleeve

But there won't be another eleventh hour reprieve

As simple as black and white

I'm never gonna be your bride

Oh no no no no no

Oh no no no no no

Hush little baby don't you cry

Mama's gonna sing a little lullaby

Hush little baby don't say a word

Mama's taking off in her thunderbird

And mama's gonna hock this diamond ring

Mama's gonna get herself a new boyfriend

Mama's gonna pick up her guitar and sing

And make a million dollars from her pain

From her pain

From her pain
