Cats Are Aliens

Cats Are Aliens


You push it in and pull it out and then you go 
You only pause to dry between your little toes 
Under the skin, worming about 
Nothing to keep the vermin out 
But tambourines and happy-clappy Folk 'n' Roll 

Ahh... 

Nobody wanted you there 
The dick swinging balls in the air 
We all know you iron your hair 
Nobody wanted you there 
You'll have to go 

O.T.S.S., only the strong 
It isn't clear whose side you're on 
It's just a line, Dazed and Confused 
But since you ask, I'm not even bruised 
And we all know which one is me 
But who are you? 

Ahh... 

Nobody wanted you there 
You'll have to go 
We pulled up the flowers in our hair 
And you'll have to cope 

(You'll have to cope) 
I may be sailing in the dark 
The only loner on the Ark 
But somewhere on your Bon Voyage you lost your soul. 
And now with eyes just like a shark's 
You write for Burton/Tucker/Marks 
At rainbow's end 
Our former friend 
We told you so. 

Nobody wanted you there 
You'll have to go 
We pulled up the flowers in our hair 
And you'll have to cope.
