Plea From A Cat Named Virtute - The Weakerthans[00:00:00]
Written by:Stephen Car[00:00:02]
Why don't you ever wanna play[00:00:15]
I'm tired of this piece of string[00:00:17]
You sleep as much as I do now[00:00:21]
And you don't eat much of anything[00:00:23]
I don't know who you're talking to[00:00:28]
I made a search through every room[00:00:31]
But all I found was dust that moved[00:00:35]
In shadows of the afternoon[00:00:38]
And listen[00:00:41]
About those bitter songs you sing[00:00:43]
They're not helping anything[00:00:47]
They won't make you strong[00:00:50]
So we should open up the house[00:00:56]
Invite the tabby two doors down[00:00:58]
You could ask your sister if[00:01:02]
She doesn't bring her basset hound[00:01:05]
Ask the things you shouldn't miss[00:01:09]
Tape hiss and the modern man[00:01:12]
Cold war and card catalogues[00:01:16]
To come join us if they can[00:01:19]
Girly drinks and parlor games[00:01:23]
We'll pass around the easy lie[00:01:26]
Of absolutely no regrets[00:01:29]
And later maybe you could try[00:01:33]
To let your losses dangle off[00:01:36]
The sharp edge of a century[00:01:39]
We'll talk about the weather[00:01:43]
Or[00:01:45]
How the weather use to be[00:01:47]
And I'll cater[00:01:49]
With all the birds that I can kill[00:01:52]
Let their tiny feathers fill[00:01:55]
Disappointment[00:01:59]
Lie down[00:02:03]
And lick the sorrow from your skin[00:02:05]
Scratch the terror and begin[00:02:09]
To believe you're strong[00:02:13]
All you ever want to do is drink and watch tv[00:02:27]
Frankly that thing doesn't really interest me[00:02:34]
I swear I'm going to bite[00:02:40]
You hard and taste your tinny blood[00:02:42]
If you don't stop the self defeating lies[00:02:47]
You've been repeating[00:02:50]
Since the day you brought me home[00:02:51]
I know you're strong[00:02:55]
