The Lyrics

I've had a lot of cats as pets when I was growing up mostly Tom Cats each one of them was different, but their was one thing they had in common, they were all mad heads. My cats liked beating up dogs, scratching all the furniture, staying out all nights, marking thier scent all over the place, hated baths and were in generally a clutz, but I loved all my pets so here's a parody to all my cats.
We’re MEOWING
9 Lives living
We’re MEOWING

I get mowed down
Bet I get up again
My nine lives are keeping me around

I sometimes drown
Bet I get up again
Nine lives before I am in the ground

Keeping the mice away
Keeping the mice away

I got my fur to lick
I like to sit and think
I got my milk to drink
I like the semi-skimmed
My owners like it when I shit in the bathroom
I mark my scent around the sides of the living room

Oh Tommy boy
Tommy boy
Tommy boy

I get ragged round
But I get up again
Aint no pit-bull ever kept me down

Fall to the ground
I’m on my arse again
But nothing can ever keep me down

Hissing the Vac away
Hissing the Vac away

I like to walk in ink
I hate the kitchen sink
I think my food’dah stink
I hate the colour pink
I sing a song on the walls, which I like to climb
I’ve scrapped with the cat next or so many times

Don’t cry for me
Next-door feline

I get mowed down
Bet I get up again
My nine lives are keeping me around

I sometimes drown
Bet I get up again
Nine lives before I am in the ground

We’re MEOWING
9 Lives living
We’re MEOWING

Even though TOS is called 'Tubthumping', I still thought this was a good work. I will have to agree with the above commenters and award this with 5s.
