The Lyrics

there ain't no telling what cats might do
they're really smelly when they're horny, too
if you ever see rodents near
then you need one or two
c-c-c-c-c-c cats won't shoo
they think we're silly and we're boring, too
in your face, they will stick their rears
can't tell what cats might do

they like to lick upon your pot roast
while some others try their utmost
to keep their lazy asses warmer than toast
they sleep the whole day through
they take no crap...they're in a moody state
can't you see their eyes are filled with hate ?
the food i'm leaving, i know won't be ate
because, they're picky, too

there ain't no telling what cats might do
i hear 'em howling when its half past two
so, i tell 'em get out of here
but yet they never do
c-c-c-c-c-c cats won't shoo
they're really messy when they're shedding, too
fur is flying all over, here
can't tell what cats might do

they're always quarreling, and they're reckless
they climb in bed with you and claw your chest
they say they have nine lives...i'd better test
that would be fun to do
i think my patience, i'm about to lose
i'm tired of buying toys, that might enthuse
i figure, maybe, they're just hard to amuse
i'm tired of trying to

there ain't no telling what cats might do
up to some trouble, is what i construe
gee, it smells like a cat in here
i hear my guests go, "phew ! "
c-c-c-c-c-c cats won't shoo
they're always sitting down where you want to
they have taken control, i fear
can't tell what cats might do

some people like to have a cat close
while other people chase them with a hose
and when they're corned, they get bellicose
they will go off on you
and if you feed 'em, they are gonna stay
they're gonna come back every single day
but i still love the dears, anyway
i like to hear them mew

there ain't no telling what cats might do
they come in every size and every hue
they're the boss and they'll make it clear
they're not that fond of you
c-c-c-c-c-c cats won't shoo
they're always looking for a place to snooze
they're as crazy as they appear
they're as crazy as they appear
they're as crazy as they appear
can't tell what cats might do

I never realized before how long this song is! Plenty of room for lots of humor and you got it all in!

Alvin Rhodes - Haven't had a chance look at any your stuff yet (well, I just looked at one right before this). Another GREAT job here! 5-5-5. Tiny error that does not really do any damage in 6th verse, 3rd line, "corned" ought to be "cornered" but outside of that this is perfect so no points off as far as I'm concerned. Will be looking at your other stuff as time allows...
