Oh Kitty Oh Kitty
Oh Kitty! Oh Kitty!
Our relationship has soured
Our love is hitting the skids
I know you love presenting me with your mouse gifts
But why do you insist on eating the heads?
But Oh, lovely, Lovely! Lovely!
O the heartfelt rubs you have given to me
Patting me down, like a nest
Filling me with happy days
Oh Kitty! Oh Kitty!
See your cat food?
Please eat it, and give up your hunting ways
This is the third time I have stepped on a part mouse barefooted.
Since you insist on hunting,
Can’t you please find favor in hunting these feathered mice?
The pretend mice cats are guaranteed to love
in TV commercials
Lovely Kitty! My true friend!
You turn me upside down with giggles when you try.
You have the power to make my bad days good.
Please give up the hunt, so we can be together.
My Kitty, you have a terrific purr.
You are full of giddiness and love.
An animal who uplifts me and makes me laugh.
Rejoice O Shores and Ring O bells!
And follow me to the larder
Where we will chat as we munch
Salmon sandwiches, giving up those damned mice.
