Catbird Seat Ain'T All That Great
Now who sittin' in the catbird seat?
Snagglepuss with dirty feet,
think you got the system beat?
Soon you'll feel the hot sun's heat.
Been dancin' the pagan dance too long,
needle stuck on same ole song,
to find out now its all been wrong...
realize now I ain't so strong.
Man came in couldn't feel his toes,
doc had to tell him what he knows,
dog been eatin' on all of those,
that pup was hungry, I suppose.
Catbird seat ain't all that great,
ain't no closer to Heaven's gate,
life is just one lengthy wait,
with too much past to contemplate.
