Yellow Cat / Red Cat Lyrics - Say Anything

I watch my yellow cat invade my red cat in the yard 

The feline war has raged for years so I assume 

Itd be to hard for me to drive my foot between them 

I would never risk the scratch 

Just to prove to one or both of them a cat is just a cat 

Again, I watch my cousin Greg watch MTV inside his home 

He makes fun of the hip-hop videos from the couch he rides alone 

Snug in the cushion of his cackling he forgets his looming doubts 

He has relied on this for years, you will not yank the carpet out 

Oh, no, these are my friends, this is who they have been for always 

These are my days, this is how they stay 

This is who they remain forever, this is how we stay 

I watch this dude each night, same table, who creates and crumples up 

His eyes are wide from sipping endlessly his endless coffee cup 

He feeds me quotes, that lonely goat 

I watch him grazing by himself I will not stop him when he rambles 

Im becoming one myself 

Lou is bugged and shot up with drugs 

He sweats this bird he hardly knows 

All that he wants is to see someone he respects 

Without their clothes so like some hybrid [unverified] 

Shed soothe and heal his wounds and kiss 

Those dying ears so softly that the reaper stops to swoon 

Oh please, I watch my neighbors son play with his shotgun in the street 

I think Ill blaze all day and marvel at the mass of food I eat 

Its strange, Im skinny when Im standing but Im Buddha when I sit 

And if Im truly so enlightened whyd I waste your time on it 

As I look back at all these crossroads and the middle where I stay 

Right up the beaten path to boredom where the fakest fucks get laid 

By the faux-finest finds, its been that way and goddamn you 

How you stay with every scummy 

Crummy hour of the scummy, crummy day
