Laura Nyro - The Cat Song текст песни

my name is Eddie

I am a cat


and I sleep with one eye open

watching the morning sail



someone calls “Eddie”

up to their lap

and I purr

but I'd sure like to get me

my breakfast

especially a fishtail

turn it into a fishscale



no, I'm not

like you people

you wheel and you war

and you whitewash your day away

(where you goin'?)

On my merry way



Spring full of fire

up goes a flower-kite

run now

sleep in the sun now

I like my fun now



my name is Eddie

I am a cat

and I sleep with one eye open

meow
