Tomcats are chasing pussys and they howling at the sky
\nBut the pussy cats having none of it, his loving she’ll deny
\nThey’ll howl and screech half the night, keeping me awake

Did they never hear of romance, some flowers, and some wine?
\nA caress upon the fur, and purr a chat up line?
\nInstead of sitting on the roof, howling at the sky
\n“Here is a pussy cat, and she will be loved by no tomcat but I!”<\/p>\n
