From the recording She Doesn't Like Cats
Lyrics
Wouldn't it be fine
He told her one day
To hear the pitter patter
Of little feet down the hallway
'Cause I think it's about time
Rather pressing in fact
To have another to love and care for
That's why we should get a cat
Well hang on honey dear
She responded in kind
I don't want to think
You've totally lost your mind
Huh? I refuse to believe felines aren't delightful to you
Nope, I simply don't like cats
And all the things they do
They get caught up trees
They make me sneeze
Sure, they bring home dead gifts
To show they love you to bits
They delete computer files
Bewitch you with their eyes
I must point out the fact
Right, you simply don't like cats
My love, I completely understand
You're well within your rights
But you know cats are clean
Self-sufficient, smart, and quiet
And you know when they're away
The rodents sure do play
And who could object anyhow
To their beautiful meows?
Oh, they get caught up trees
They make me sneeze
They bring home dead gifts
To show they love you to bits
They delete computer files
Bewitch you with their eyes
Surely they can't be as bad as all that
Sorry, I just don't want a cat
A cat will scratch the furniture
As one of the ways it'll hurt ya
Yeah, it'll demand close attention
The next minute regard you with condescension
It'll use its crafty brain
To treat the neighborhood dogs with disdain
It'll interrupt Zoom meetings
While ignoring all of our pleadings
They get caught up trees
They make me sneeze
They bring home dead gifts
To show they love you to bits
They delete computer files
Bewitch you with their eyes
But I hope you understand THIS fact
It's either me... or it's a cat
So that's that
