Lost Kitten
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't say yes if you can't say no
Victim of a system, say it isn't so
Squatted on the doorstep
Swallowed on the blow
Leaving without you, can't say no
Halfway starts with happiness for me
Halfway house, lost kitten in a street
Hit me where it hurts
I'm coming home to lose
Kitten on the catwalk, high-heeled shoes
No more hard-headed Saturdays
They got it, they want it, they give it away
Tell me one thing you would never do
I was looking for a hooker when I found you
You've got my eyes, you've got my eyes
You'll never be mine
But you got my eyes
When you lie, I cover it up
When you hide, I cover it up
When you cry, I cover it up
When you come undone, I cover it up
So pent up, I was coming home to you
Happy in the night-time, howling at the Moon
Sippin' on a cocktail, drinking in the loo
There's something about you that I hold on to
You've got my eyes, you've got my eyes
You'll never be mine
But you got my eyes
When you lie, I cover it up
When you hide, I cover it up
When you cry, I cover it up
When you blend, I cover it up
When you lie, I cover it up
When you hide, I cover it up
When you cry, I cover it up
When you come undone, I cover it up
They got it, they want it, they give it away
When you lie, I cover it up
When you hide, I cover it up
When you cry, I cover it up
When you come undone, I cover it up
