Cursive - The Cat And Mouse lyrics
[Cursive - The Cat And Mouse lyrics]
Pollock is sleeping on a chaise longue in
The dim, moonlit parlor cassius enters
Wielding a long and narrow knife at his side
He lords over Pollock as he sleeps
A little mouse creeps
As the mighty tomcat sleeps
He's been up for forty nights
He needs his forty winks
To think of all the mischief
His teeth did sink i can nearly taste it
Some scars heal and practically fade away
While some reveal a past you can't escape
And others still are entirely fake
Cassius carefully checks Pollock's scalp
With his knife
So, what's it going to be
My long lost brother show your scars
Are you going to be my long lost brother
After all? I don't really need a long
Lost brother tearing me apart
Cassius discovers that Pollock has
A scar identical
To his own but TOO identical!
BOTH twins exhibit their scars on the
RIGHT side of their heads
Let's start knocking them nine lives off!
I know what you are, I know what you're doing
I know what this is it's a bloodletting!
Pollock awakens to find Cassius above him
Knife drawn he quickly rolls
Out of harm's way
And flees across the room the hunt begins
When the cat's away
It's said the mouse will play
Oh, but this little mouse
Was brainwashed to behave
Now, the cat's out of the bag
And someone's got to pay
"Here, kitty, kitty!"
All my life I've been made to do what's right
Well, all my life is going to end tonight
And you, my pet, are my first sacrifice
So what's it going to be
My long lost brother pass or fail?
Are you going to be my long lost brother?
Heads or tails i never really had a brother
But it doesn't hurt to be double sure
Cassius leaps upon Pollock
A fierce struggle ensues
I know what you are, I know what you're doing
I know what this is it's a bloodletting!
I know what you are, I know what you're after
You're a dead ringer, you're a doppelganger!
Kill the demon, kill your doppelganger!
Kill the demon, kill your doppelganger!
Kill the demon, kill your doppelganger!
Kill the demon, kill your doppelganger!
The dim, moonlit parlor cassius enters
