The Cat
The trouble with a kitten is that
Eventually it becomes a cat
- Ogden Nash
The cat walked into the living room
And gave to all a stare.
Then quickly taking note of all
He chose the softest chair
This only goes to demonstrate
No matter where your at
To sit in the softest chair in the room
You'll have to move the cat
It's time for supper your stomach says
And to the kitchen you go
No matter how fast you move
You going to be too slow
This only goes to demonstrate
No matter where your at
To have a peaceful meal at all
First you must feed the cat
'tis late at night and time for bed
This is no time to fiddle
You think you'll have the bed to yourself
But the cat'll be in the middle
This only goes to demonstrate
No matter where your at
To have the bed all to yourself
You'll have to put out the cat
It has been said by those who know
That nobody owns a cat
A partnership's the best you'll do
So just go along with that
This only goes to demonstrate
No matter where your at
A compromise is all there is
As long as you have a cat
