When The Cats Away

I can't deny

Things have been good

But I don't know why

They don't quite seem what they should

My only evidence is my sixth sense

Telling me

You're doing all the things you used to do

Do again

I know your history

But don't think

You can do those things to me

When the cat's away the mice will play

But think about the price you pay

You can run, you can hide

Deny and lie

But words travel faster than speed of light

So when the cats away the mice will play

But don't you play that stunt on me

Cause I spy with my little eye

And if I catch you, bye bye

Well, hear me out

When I'm out of town

It doesn't give

You a license to fool around

I feel it

You haven't changed

I believe it

You're back to playing you're ol games

I know your history

But don't think

You can do those things to me

When the cat's away the mice will play

But think about the price you pay

You can run, you can hide

Deny and lie

But words travel faster than speed of light

So when the cats away the mice will play

But don't you play that stunt on me

Cause I spy with my little eye

And if I catch you, bye bye

(2x)

They say that you can't teach an old dog brand new tricks

And baby my friends tellin me that you won't change

And maybe they're right, the promise you made to me

On the count of three

You, be, out

When the cat's away the mice will play

But think about the price you pay

You can run, you can hide

Deny and lie

But words travel faster than speed of light

So when the cats away the mice will play

But don't you play that stunt on me

Cause I spy with my little eye

And if I catch you, bye bye

(3x)
