Like A Cat
I lived in your shadow
I drove your car
You thought I belonged in your four walls
I was never your bunny
I was never, never your pet
When you threw me out the window
I landed on my feet
Yeah, you threw me out the window
Like a, like a, like a cat
Hey, mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me, like a, like a
You thought I'd be purring
Curled up by your fire
Don't want to be kept for your desire
You said I should be happy
But it only made me sad
And when you could never tame me
That made you mad
No, you could never tame me
Like a, like a, like a cat
Hey mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me
You rescued me, I didn't want to be saved
I got tired of your missionary position, babe
When you threw me out the window
I landed on my feet
Yeah, you threw me out the window
Like a, like a, like a cat
Hey mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you hold me
No, you never can own me, like a cat
No, you never can own me, like a hat
No, you never can own me, like a cat
I drove your car
You thought I belonged in your four walls
I was never your bunny
I was never, never your pet
When you threw me out the window
I landed on my feet
Yeah, you threw me out the window
Like a, like a, like a cat
Hey, mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me, like a, like a
You thought I'd be purring
Curled up by your fire
Don't want to be kept for your desire
You said I should be happy
But it only made me sad
And when you could never tame me
That made you mad
No, you could never tame me
Like a, like a, like a cat
Hey mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me
You rescued me, I didn't want to be saved
I got tired of your missionary position, babe
When you threw me out the window
I landed on my feet
Yeah, you threw me out the window
Like a, like a, like a cat
Hey mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you hold me
No, you never can own me, like a cat
No, you never can own me, like a hat
No, you never can own me, like a cat
