Black Cat Lyrics

The black cat firecracker
Snapped back baseball cappin'
Coca-cola sippin' on the suds
Wearing penny loafers
His Sunday best ain't good enough
For the rest of the world
Yet he stands in line
And waits on his turnThe complex, disconfigured man
Unassociated, agitated with the careful
Investigator taking notes
He slowly tip toes towards the darkWatercolor sunset
Painted before his eyes
The gateway has been open
To the wonders of his mindHe was a nonbeliever
Now without a doubt
He looks up at the clouds
The chemical swirls fading in and outThe peacekeeper drafted into war
With a loaded rifle

Unaware of consequences
Cold war ended with spaceship
Has kind of shakers
He has been programmed to believe a lie
Yet he stands there with a gun
In the front lineBlood red color sunset
Painted before his eyes
The veil has been lifted
As he watches his friends
Drop like fliesHe was a nonbeliever
Now without a doubt
He looks down at his paws
The guts he has spluttered to the groundYeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!The family got the letter
It was a message, clear and true
The hero, he has fallen
For the red, white and blueAnd he was a nonbeliever
Now without a doubt
His body lay 6ft under the ground
The black cats 9 lives, they ran outYeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah!
