Well I'm just a little cat sitting on a hill Watching the people go by I ain't got no problems if I did I'd solve'em Even if it made me cry My fur's kinda mangy you can say I'm kinda lazy I don't even want to know why I just need a hit of a little catnip A simple bit to widen my eye Now I don't need a collar or a fancy feast I just need a place to dwell And I don't need a double decker litter box I'd much rather chase some tail All the people I see are acting like me Kicked back and glassy eyed And this ocean breeze is smelling kinda green It's like their own paradise All the hippies, the junkies and the troubadours And this dirty old alley cat Are as high as a peach down at Venice Beach Like a bunch of stoned sandy rats Now I don't need a collar or a fancy feast I just need to lurk with my friends And I don't need a double decker litter box I just wannabe dazed to the end Now I don't need a collar or a fancy feast I just need a place to dwell And I don't need a double decker litter box I'd much rather chase some tail

Every once in a while I will pick myself up and start again Every once in a while I see spots without looking too hard Oh my god I feel lighter now than I've ever been Oh my god I see visions sometimes that haunt me for days And in a little while I will laugh again And in a little while I'll learn to smile again let the rain soak in on me Hey Hey Hallelujiah We would always sing when we were young And as I grew older I felt rocket ships soar from the depths of my heart Oh my god whats become of my love for everything Oh my god I've used the bottle to wash away all my fears let the rain soak in on me Always Always I am bone dry Sunlight sometimes til I bleed easily Rest a little while while my minds alright I swear Always Always I am bone dry til it all falls down By the way my song is not meant to be sung as the others are sung Pick it apart if you will you'll never see life as I do Plain to see I'm lower now than I was yesterday By the way I've forgiven you Every once in a while I will pick myself up and start again

well, that's a fine way of letting go to turn your back and run well that's a fine way of letting go so sets the lost sun you've gone and signed all your wedding vows in disappearing ink well that's a fine way of letting go faster than a blink shall I wonder where you are shall I watch you from afar shall I think about the things I wish I'd said? did you love me anyway did you ever think you'd stay was there anything I could've done instead? well, that's a fine way of letting go to turn your back and run well that's a fine way of letting go so sets the lost sun you've gone and signed all your wedding vows in disappearing ink well that's a fine way of letting go faster than a blink did you plan it from the start? was there method to your art? my contingency was always your design did it hurt a little bit when the spat became the split I'd like to know you ache from time to time sure as the turn of the screw I will be coming for you the blood runs thick and cold well, that's a fine way of letting go to turn your back and run well that's a fine way of letting go so sets the lost sun you've gone and signed all your wedding vows in disappearing ink well that's a fine way of letting go faster than a blink

Try to do too much feeling like your head's about to explode Stress and run and rush Better lighten up that load Try to be a hero you just hurt yourself Till you got nuthing left Slow down honey why you moving so fast Too many things on your mind Can't do it all just take one step at a time Slow down Slow down Waking up to at midnight Thoughts won't give you peace Take a deeper breath til your sure And let the moment ease Try to take on everything til there's nothing left Slow down honey why you moving so fast Too many things on your mind Can't do it all just take one step at a time Slow down Slow down

Let's hear it for the late arrivals Comin' in strong like a wave so tidal Keep it hid like a veil so bridal Let's hear it for the new additions Writing songs like they're on a mission Sitting hoping waiting wishing Let's hear it for after midnight Walking home alone in soft light Play it quiet, you destroy the stagefright Let's hear it for a life in pictures 1,000 friends & 6 well-wishers The space between a lie & scripture Let's hear it for the late arrivals Let's hear it for the late arrivals Let's hear it for the late arrivals Let's hear it for the late arrivals

This bottom rung is my second home Keep a set a keys in my pocket I've been here before Welcome mat at the door Climbing up to the great beyond Seems further and further Sliding and slipping You'd think I wasn't gripping Maybe it's the altitude Maybe it's an attitude Maybe just some convoluted stack of shit my mouth just spewed I keep on falling down Pull myself up again then it feels like I am falling down, Repeat again I know they're in between the beats, in between the beats Keep Listening keep listening are you hearing me? They're right there in between the beats, in between the beats Surely it's the key that keeps eluding me eluding me I don't know how long I can keep moving on Closer to you closer to you So far away just within my reach Closer to you closer to you Nervous gestures make Desperate measures Closer to you closer to you Not like I choose Gravity ensues Further from you further from you I keep pushing on, left then right
