An Ill-Treated Hiccup

The cats are crying at the screen door

the neighbors are revving up their cars

the world is just exploding now with people

and all of their noises are just drowning out-

the cat's still crying at the screen door

I was just a hiccup in the rain

then you struck me with your cane

you made it your life's work to end up a stain

The cats are crying at the screen door

the neighbors blast speeches from stereos

the world is simply flooded now with people

and all of their noises are drowning out-

the cat's still crying at the screen door

clawing at the screen door

I was just a hiccup in the rain

then you struck me with your cane

you made it your life's work to end up a stain
