about

For the badge 'The truth about cats and dogs' - brief: 'Write a song about or from the perspective of an animal', I had fun enjoying my wife's suggestion about a supercilious pet cat feeling out of favour to a newly arrived pet dog. It has the cat talking directly to the owner about her woes...

lyrics

A skyward tail, as I slowly strut
Observe my grace, you stupid little mutt
You think you rule but hold on, wait
I think I need to put you in your place
And as for you, my so called owner
Don’t you get that I’m a loner?
I’m a cat okay? I’m a feline queen
I’m a cat okay? And I’m sleek and mean

This used to be a dog-free zone
Now that interloper, just won’t leave me alone
Well you’re Okay but I don’t like your wife
Now I get why you call her trouble and strife
When she shops she buys cheap brands
But when you go, you get tastier cans
I’m a cat okay? I’m a feline queen
I’m a cat okay? And I’m sleek and mean

You doze to the TV like a bump on a log
But tell me please, when do we lose the dog?
I always used to be first on the sofa
But now I’m usurped by that canine loafer
This space is mine but it makes me bilious
This situation is making me supercilious
I’m a cat okay? I’m a feline queen
I’m a cat okay? And I’m sleek and mean
ROAR!
