Cat And Mouse

Never know what is in store

There was a squeak in the parlor
There was a cry in the night
There was shadow but
There was no light

Cat leaped on the table
Sound fades a way
Today is yesterday
as the shadow
goes a way

Tripped on the cord
watched the sun fade
Slowing got to my feet
Live in the bed I made

Called out to the wind
Held death at bay
Shook the cobwebs
Let the spider get away

Cold falls in the memory
Motion never strays
Every voice takes me
To a place I have been

Mouse ate the tainted candy
Cat ate the mouse
house is lonely
nobody gets out
