Gallows for a Cat - The Cat Lyrics

So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat
So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat

I'm stepping out with style and grace
A look of smug confidence on my face
I'm the coolest, it's an undeniable fact
I got the paws with the claws and a tail in the back
While I'm drumming, I strut and then I nod to the beat
There ain't a problem I don't solve, I got the knowledge, I'm street
You'll never get the drop or get me off of my feet
Because I'm solid on em, like if I had em in cleats
So I stroll, my shoulders low, I'm so loose
All the critters know, and then they they go, vamoose
But I'm wily, they never get an exodus
And they'll be dropping on your door like UPS
Aw, you can take the tiger out and put him in your home
But I roam, all around the block I'm known
And I'm down with that, put out your welcome mat
Cuz everybody wants to be a cat

So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat
So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat

So while you walk down the block and the alleyways
Hear me yowl, I'm talking, I gotta say
I'm a stone cold Tom, but I need your praise
I'm a god, I flaunt the Egyptian ways
I'm a lion, I stretch so leisurely
And I growl and I prowl, and it seems to me
You better pay your dues if you use my route
Double crossing a cat is a vain pursuit
But I'm so hirsute, I keep it glossy
Ears slicked back and my whiskers frosty
I live my life by the feline code
And I scrap and I fight on the midnight road
And if you walk in the dark, keep your nose real sharp
If you're smart, and if you got a spot in your heart
That's all lean and black, well I can speak to that
Cuz I'm the medicine-you got a need for cats

So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat
So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat

So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat
So who's the cat that knows where it's at
Grooving on the Gallows with the patch and the bat
You'll never see me stumble, trip up, or fall flat
Welcome to my habitat
