the fear is my excitement
will he ever catch me now
leaving the door wide open
I’m free to run in and out

always with an eye on me
there’s nothing I can’t do
but I also like to test his nerve
to see if I can tempt him too

this game we play is sick to some
cuz they really don’t get the thrill
of cat and mouse which is the best
whose fastest or makes the kill

as in-house rodent I can always get by
because I love the Master’s cheese
but the feline can smell me w/o eyes
so I have to be quicker then he

each time the fur ball catches me
he tells me, “cuz you’re a girl,
I’m letting you get off easy this time
but soon I’m gonna rock your world”

change is comin, they both sense that
but will it be the Master of the house
who takes his toy away from the cat
when he traps that little girl mouse

the two best friends have had free reign
to them, this cat & mouse land is home
but the Master’s back and wants his way
with the mouse he’s got plans of his own
