t's hard (it's hard) To be a cat (to be a cat) At Christmas (at Christmas)
(Meow Meow Meow)
It's hard To be a cat At Christmas When the fire's dimming down And the gifts are all wrapped And the stockings are kept And suddenly there's nowhere to run (yeah) And with the smell of chestnuts fading (whoa-oh) I take a peek, I take a poke around the tree I see the gifts for him, her, and you But I guess that Santa forgot about me (me)
It's hard to be a cat at Christmas (meow meow meow) With everyone else's gifts layin' under the tree (whoa-oh) Maybe this year you'll leave me just a tiny, tiny present A can of food just for me
It's hard to be a cat at Christmas (whoa-oh) When you're constantly surrounded by food All the roastin' and the bastin' that the family's tastin' And that turkey that smells so fricken good
The feast goes on for hours and when all is devoured I look to see if Santa Claus has left me a can (whoa-oh) I see nothing 'round back, only dry food in my bowl I guess, for me, there's no Christmas plan

It's hard to be a cat at Christmas (meow meow meow) When the holiday lights begin dimming I think of the cold and all the shelters [that] are full And their bowls that are no longer brimming
Look at my face you might think that it's grumpy And that I have no holiday joy (no no no) But I wish that for every cat across the land Sometimes the can's more important than the toy
