Cat Among Your Pigeons Lyrics

What you got beating in your chest?

Got you breathing so hard?

What you got beating in your chest

It just won't let you rest

Got your buttons all done up so high

All your buckles and clips

All your belts and straps up tight

Checks at your fingertips

Cut clean honey - from the cloth

All wrapped up in ribbons

Wouldn't I like - wouldn't I like

Like to be the Cat

Among your Pigeons

All your lines and your edges trimmed

In a fold of flashes

But what you beating there behind those rims

What you got beating in your chest

Look how the bough it bends

You got a blush that won't be stemmed

Can't keep the flowers in their beds

Cut clean honey - from the cloth

All wrapped up in ribbons

Wouldn't I like - wouldn't I like

Like to be the Cat

Among your Pigeons

Nice to think that you can keep those curls

All neat and pinned

But there's a worm in the apple of my eye

It's writhing 'round within

What's that you got netted up so tight

Busting to get loose?

Tied to the tracks like dynamite

To blow my little red caboose

Cut clean honey - from the cloth

All wrapped up in ribbons

Wouldn't I like - wouldn't I like

Yeah like to be the Cat

Among your Pigeons
