I watched 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 watched 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 day This is how they stay Hey, hey Hey, hey
(ok check this out)
I watched 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 and shot up with drugs He sweats this bird he hardly know All that he wants is to see someone he respects without their clothes So like some hybrid mother slash lover she’d soothe and heal his wounds And kiss those 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'll remain forever This is how we stay Hey, hey Hey, hey Ahhhhh, shit
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 and god damn 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'll remain forever This is how we stay Hey, hey Hey, hey, hey Hey, hey
