About cats and birds
There in the tree
sits a bird and looks down on me i can see
Over there a cat strolls along
then a light rain breaks and starts to fall down
Closing the window
looking out as the purple rain goes away
Never seen the sky so blue and
wonder if it’s real or just an old movie scene
If i just could say something
something i made up that could help you now
Maybe i should try to sing
about a cat and bird will this help somehow
why is it so
I don’t know yet we’re all in this together now
even those with special membership
learning now of course they’re ain’t in it, Bye now!
None of the birds care
well i do as i sip away one more tea
try to sit relax my darling
close your eyes and calm your mind be the bird there
If i just could say something
something i made up that could help you now
Maybe i should try to sing
about the cat and bird will this help somehow
Was it a dream
getting high going up and down on the rides
dancing at the funfair was so fun
never thought the sun was gonna come down
and so the wheel comes to halt
and the yelling and the pushing and the shoving stops
Silently the cat keeps going on
Silence is so loud as if it’s been always so
If i just could say something
something i made up that could help you now
Maybe i should try to sing
about a cat and bird will this help somehow
Never get lost in fear
i’m with you and together we’re shining through
merging with the light that’s all around
and within, let’s go and find ourselves again
Let us begin from new
figure out where we’re coming from and where we go
Let us take a chance and make it good
try to sit relax my darling
we’ll see it through
If i just could say something
something i made up that could help you now
Maybe i should try to sing
about a cat and bird
will this help somehow
We’re not to give in, We’re not to give in, We’re not to give in, We’re not to give in
