Tommy the Cat

I remember as if it were a meal ago

Said, Tommy the Cat as he reeled back to clear

Whatever foreign matter may have nestled its way into his mighty throat

Many a fat alley rat had met its demise

While staring point blank down the cavernous barrel

Of this awesome prowling machine

Truly a wonder of nature this urban predator

Tommy the cat had many a story to tell

But it was a rare occasion such as this that he did

She came slidin' down the alleyway

Like butter drippin' off a hot biscuit

The aroma, the mean scent, was enough

To arouse suspicion in even the oldest of

Tigers that hung around the hot spot in those days

The sight was beyond belief

Many a head snapped for double even triple

Takes as this vivacious feline made her

Her way into the delta of the alleyway

Where the most virile of the young

Tabbys were known to hang out

They hung in droves

Such a multitude of masculinity

could only be found in one place

And that was O'malley's Alley

The air was thick with cat calls

(No pun intended)

But not even a muscle in her neck did twitch

As she sauntered up into the heart of the alley

She knew what she wanted

She was lookin' for that stud bull, the he cat.

And that was me

Tommy the Cat is my name and I say unto thee

Say baby, "Do you wanna lay down by me?"
