mismatched socks - bad omen lyrics
[intro]
[verse 1]
i was walking down the street at a quarter to four
when i met a black cat, he said my life was a bore
“well i’m having much more fun than you,”
i said, “i could do anything i wanted to”
well he looked at me and he smiled a lot
he said, “sure you have thumbs, but have you ever thought
“you got less fur than a siamese
“and i bet you have a harder time climbing trees”
so i asked him true, “what should i do
“if i want to be a nice black cat like you?”
“well, i’ll trade you my body for free
“and then you can be a little black cat like me”
with a one, two, three, four…
[musical break]
[verse 2]
well, a cat’s the only cat, they say
that knows just where it’s at today
and with nine lives and a tail too
i count among the honoured few
but as it goes, to my surprise
i came to know i was not wise
to cut a longer story short
i do report:
i found my pleasures fleeting, my happiness kept bleeding
i had no b-lls of yarn and slept inside a barn
i met a cat named esther, her family’d gone and left her
at three weeks old and truth be told
i left her too, out in the cold
i couldn’t solve my problems, so how could i solve hers?
cold and tired, matted fur, oh how could things get worse?
[musical break]
[verse 3]
i was walking down the street at a quarter to three
when i saw a sorry fella, looked a lot like me
and that’s the moment i hatched a plan
and i walked right up, ’cause i’d found my man
“well you look like you’re having a wonderful time
“but wouldn’t you agree there’s more to find?
“i mean, you got less fur than a siamese
“and i bet you have a harder time climbing trees”
and wouldn’t it be, he asked who to see
if he wants to be a nice black cat like me
“well, i’ll trade you my body for free
“and then you can be a little black cat like me”
with a one, two, three, four…
