What about that cat
What will he do now
He's out there on the run
He's carrying a gun
What about his ma
What about his pa
They're out there looking for him
It's looking pretty grim
No no no no
But you know where he's at
And what about that cat
He's out there running 'round tonight
He's inside, inside, outside
What about the girl
That he left behind
She's out shopping around
At the five and dime
What about the dreams
They vanish in despair
Familiar vacant stare
No no no no
'Cause you know where she's at
What about that cat
He's out there running 'round tonight
He's inside, inside, outside
He's outside
What about that cat
You know where he's at
He's inside, inside, outside
What about that cat
What will he do now
His clothes are soaking wet
And it's not over yet
What about the dreams
They vanish in the air
A cat going nowhere
No no no no
