LINDA'S CAT
(verse)
It's lonely in the city
So Linda got a kitty
At a store downtown
She named that Persian Shadow
Cause there's not a place that she goes
Where he's not around
And I don't think that an hour passes by
When I don't wish I could be that little guy.
(chorus)
I wish that she would scratch my back and stroke my hair
I wish that when she turned her lights off I was there
I wish that I could lay my head on Linda's lap
Just like Linda's cat
(verse)
If only I could show her
That I'd like to get to know her
As a lover can
That I'll always stay her best friend
But it's just too hard to pretend
That is all I am
There are times I lie in bed and I believe
That a part of her is reaching out for me
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
I'm just a little jealous, I don't hate him
But I'd love to be the one to separate 'em
(repeat chorus)
