the cat with one big EYE
Walked out the door the other day
Heading for my car
Dropped my car keys on the grass
Didn't know what for
Heard a sound behind my back
Didn't see a thing
But didn't like the sound of it
Was like a growwwwlllling..........
Scooped up the keys
And did it quick
Scared of unseen foes
I turned around and on the ground
I stopped dead still and froze
There was a cat with One big Eye
Staring up at me
Looking like a tiny panther
Hungry for such as me.......
I backed up slowly
And ran away
Hurried to my car
But when I got to the side of the Ford
The cat was already there
Where ya going? the cat then asked
And I didn't know what to say
I'd never spoken to a cat before
It was turning out to be a strange day.....
Uh...I'm...uh. um. .I'm going to work
I finally just blurted out
And I looked around with one eye on the ground
For someone to whom I could shout
Just chill out, man, the cat then said
It's not your day to die
Then the alarm clock screamed
And it shattered the dream
But all I could do was lie...
In a pool of sweat, sheets soaking wet
So happy I could cry
The dream was no more
But when I opened the door.....
There was the cat with One big Eye.
