Word Thingys: Salome Strangelove
I did that thing you told me not to do
The thing you said you’d always hate
Did it without care and with intent
One night when it was far too late
And I wouldn’t say I did it out of spite
Or then again… that’s probably right
So I wrote this song about the cat
She breaks my glasses and claws my bed
I wrote this song about the cat
She loves to pull all my loose threads
I wrote this song about the cat
She steals my heart and spills my beer
I wrote this song about the cat
She’s the one curled up right here
Thinking ‘bout those ultimatums
When you kept me half the night
Not to purr or love me madly
But to pick another fight
And I wouldn’t say it was all bad
The make-up part was better when we were mad
So I wrote this song about the cat
She breaks my glasses and claws my bed
I wrote this song about the cat
She loves to pull all my loose threads
I wrote this song about the cat
She steals my heart and spills my beer
I wrote this song about the cat
She’s the one curled up right here
No more four am phone calls
No more second second chances
Not your rainy day doormat
Got me a brand new pussycat
Oh, I wrote this song about the cat
She breaks my glasses and claws my bed
I wrote this song about the cat
She loves to pull all my loose threads
I wrote this song about the cat
She steals my heart and spills my beer
I wrote this song about the cat
She’s the one curled up right here
She’s the one that I’m keepin’ right here.
