Cats on the Bed
Barling

Used to be there were cats on the bed
Then there weren't any cats on the bed
She demanded there be cats on the bed
Now there's cats on the bed

She said she didn't even really much like cats
other people's dogs might as well be rats
"Keep 'em with your children, they're just filthy brats, yeah"
That's what she said

Used to be there were cats on the bed
Then there weren't any cats on the bed
She demanded there be cats on the bed
Now there's cats on the bed

She said the workin' people got a good dream that
close resembles that of one good lean cat
"Keep on petting me and I'll be right back"
That's what she said

Used to be there were cats on the bed
Then there weren't any cats on the bed
She demanded there be cats on the bed
Now there's cats on the bed

She said you gotta follow on what's wrong right
yesterday, tomorrow, maybe tonight
"Yes, forever and infernally finite"
That's what she said

Used to be there were cats on the bed
Then there weren't any cats on the bed
She demanded there be cats on the bed
Now there's cats on the bed

Ain't nothin' special 'bout what's up on the bed
'cept what you make it happen in your old head
"And if it's cozy, how can it be wicked?"
That's what she said

Used to be there were cats on the bed
Then there weren't any cats on the bed
She demanded there be cats on the bed
Now there's cats on the bed
