I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs I know you re no scare-eyed honey. There ll be a feast if you just come upstairs But it s no hanging matter It s no capital crime I can see that you re fifteen years old No I don t want your I.D. You look so rest-less and you re so far from home But it s no hanging matter It s no capital crime Oh yeahyou re a strange stray cat Oh yeahdon tcha scratch like that Oh yeahyou re a strange stray cat Bet your mama don t know you scream like that I bet your mother don t know you can spit like that. You look so weird and you re so far from home But you don t really miss your mother Don t look so scared I m no mad-brained bear But it s no hanging matter It s no capital crime Ohyeah Woo! I bet your mama don t know that you scatch like that I bet she don t know you can bite like that. You say you got a friendthat she s wilder than you Why don t you bring her upstairs If she s so wild then she can join in too It s no hanging matter It s no capital crime Oh yeahyou re a strange stray cat Oh yeahdon tcha scratch like that Oh yeahyou re a strange stray cat I bet you mama don t know you can bite like that I ll bet she never saw you scratch my back |
