Yeah you know i'm a tomcat and you's my kitten
And i'm scratchin' around in your windowpane
Yeeeeeeaah you know i'm a tomcat and you's my kitten
And i've been scratchin' around in your windowpane
Let me in let me in baby
So i can feel good all over again
Yeah you know i'm a tomcat and you's my kitten
And im just sitting here licking my paws
Yeeeeeeah you know i'm a tomcat and you's my kitten
And im just sitting here licking my paws
Well you know (young girl im dreamin? inaudible..)
I wanna strike you back with my claw
Yeah you know i'm a tomcat and you's my kitten
And i want you like a hoopin owl.
Yeah you know i'm a tomcat and you's my kitten
And i just want you like a hoopin owl
Yeah you gon be sleepin when i'm creepin
When i make my midnight pounce
Yeah you know i'm a tomcat and you's my kitten

Gonna catch up with you one day
Yeah you know im gonna get you girl
