I watch my yellow cat invade my red cat in the yard |
|
The feline war has raged for years so I assume it'd be too hard |
|
For me to drive my foot between them, I would never risk the scratch |
|
Just to prove to one or both of them a cat is just a cat |
|
Again I watch my cousin Greg watch MTV inside his home |
|
He makes fun of the hip-hop videos from the couch, he rides alone |
|
Snug in the cushion of his cackling, he forgets his looming doubts |
|
He has relied on this for years, you will not yank the carpet out |
|
No, no |
|
These are my friends, this is who they have been for always |
|
These are my days, this is how they stay, hey hey |
|
Okay, check this out... |
|
I watch this dude each night, same table, who creates and crumples up |
|
His eyes are wide from sipping endlessly his endless coffee cup |
|
He feeds me quotes, that lonely goat, I watch him grazing by himself |
|
I will not stop him when he rambles, I'm becoming one myself |
|
Lou is bugged, shot up with drugs, sweats this bird he hardly knows |
|
All that he wants is to see someone he respects without their clothes |
|
So like some hybrid mother/lover she'd soothe and heal his wounds |
|
And kiss them dying ears so softly that the reaper stops to swoon |
|
Oh, please |
|
These are my friends, this is who they have been for always |
|
These are my days, this is how they stay, hey hey |
|
These are my friends, this is who they remain forever |
|
This is how we stay, hey hey, hey hey |
|
I watch my yellow cat, hey, hey |
|
I watch my yellow cat |
|
I watch my yellow cat, hey, hey |
|
I watch my yellow cat |
|
I watch my neighbor's son play with his shotgun in the street |
|
I think I'll blaze all day and marvel at the mass of food I eat |
|
It's strange, I'm skinny when I'm standing but I'm Buddha when I sit |
|
And if I'm truly so enlightened, why'd I waste your time on it? |
|
As I look back at countless crossroads and the middle where I stay |
|
Right up the beaten path to boredom where the fakest fucks get laid |
|
By the faux finest finds, it's been that way, goddamn you, how you stay |
|
With every scummy, crummy hour of the scummy, crummy day |
|
Hey, hey! |
|
These are my friends, this is who they have been for always |
|
These are my days, this is how they stay, hey hey |
|
These are my friends, this is who they remain forever |
|
This is how we stay, hey hey, hey hey |
