Nields Crossing Mr. Meow

by Becky (4/10/2001)
to the tune of "Mr. Right Now"


dedicated to my cat, Bailey
His fur is longer than is sensible
He's beautiful
He just left half of it on my black wool jacket
He's beautiful
Talk to him "Meow! Mr. Meow!"
All the things that you try to tell him
Don't mean nothing if not in his language ­ "Meow!"

I see him noticing another cat
He's growling now
I'm kind of scared but I'm compelled to go closer
He scratched me ­ OW!
"You stop that right now, Mr. Meow!"
Even though he should be trained
It's hard to do when I am pained…yow!
Yow!
YOW!!!

He loves to sneak outside and scratch at trees
He really tries
He thinks "She so slow she'll never catch me
I'm free! Good-bye!"
Come back here right now, Mr. Meow
All the good times you have out in the breeze
Won't be worth it when you come back with fleas
"Meow!
Meow!"
