My Pussy’s Chasing Flies

He’s looking at a sparrow up above the tallest tree
Watch out, cat’s about, I saw that sparrow flee
Shaking off the raindrops, he don’t know just what it is
Could be an honorary award for feline bliss

I said: “Say you won’t ever leave me”
He said :“Only if you keep on feeding me”

My Pussy’s chasing flies
I tell him all the time, don’t swallow ‘em, just be nice
But my pussy’s chasing flies
My pussy keeps chasing flies.

He thinks that he’s a tiger or a grizzly bear at that
But we don’t have the heart to tell him he’s just a pussy cat
And when he takes the stage we all pretend to be afraid
After all, the boy has got a legend to sustain.

I said: “Say you love your daddy and mummy”
He said: “Only if you’ll rub my tummy”

My Pussy’s chasing flies
I tell him all the time, don’t swallow ‘em, just be nice
But my pussy’s chasing flies
My pussy keeps chasing flies.

And one day when I lost him, I started to cry
Nobody had seen him
I was going out of my mind
Then one day out of nowhere he suddenly arrived
He didn’t want hugs and kisses
He said: “Daddy, I’m just to busy now for all of that, I’ve got to go and catch me a fly”.

My Pussy’s chasing flies
I tell him all the time, don’t swallow ‘em, just be nice
But my pussy’s chasing flies
My pussy keeps chasing flies.
