Текст песни
You thought I was just a black cat?
Well, think again
But that’s between us
Not just a black cat – I’m a hippo, man
I swear by my tail and my long moustache, man
Of course I’m not the one from that famous book
But I’ll still get under your skin – just one look
I can start a racket, a real rough game
So here’s a warning, you crazy little family
Get ready!
I’m coming through – break the plates, it’s true
How’s your little canary bird? Tell me, how’s she?
You left the window open – oh, what a treat
Nothing’s better for a cat, so sweet!
I’ve been planning this jump for a long, long time
Like a circus gag – perfectly timed
Balcony railing… voilà – I leap
Land on the cornice, soft and deep
Sneak through the window – not a sound
Well, hello there, Chick! You look wound
Not happy to see a black cat today?
Shut your yellow beak, stop flying away
Just tell me the way to the fridge, okay?
The lady brought sausage in her shopping sack
You like sausage, Chick?
…Squeak
I’ll bring you some – no need to crack
She ate and went quiet – oh my, what bliss
That sausage was pure tenderness
Plates are locked in the cabinet – what to do?
Knock over the flowerpots? That’s nothing new
But I guess not today – jump and hop
I’m out
Click goes the lock
Feathers… if you get the chance – you run
But mostly – take care of your nerves, hun
And about the sausage – not a word to the missus
I’ll help you with your yard permit – no business
What a beautiful day – what more could I need?
I’m full… time to sleep, indeed
You thought I was just a black cat?
Nah
Not just a black cat
