Cat People

[Verse 1] You sit in the window light Like you own the block Tail to the left, ears up Yeah, you never stop You knocked my keys off twice Just to watch me bend Then you blink like nothing And do it again [Pre-Chorus] Soft steps, sharp eyes You read my mind One purr and I’m gone Every single time [Chorus] Cat people, cat people We land on our feet Cat people, cat people Purring in the heat Cat people, cat people We don't need a leash Cat people, cat people Come scratch up the beat [Verse 2] You hide in the laundry pile Like a tiny thief Then you sprint through the hallway With a stolen leaf You judge every stranger From the top of the stair One slow tail flick Says, "Careful in there" [Pre-Chorus] Soft steps, sharp eyes You read my mind One purr and I’m gone Every single time [Chorus] Cat people, cat people We land on our feet Cat people, cat people Purring in the heat Cat people, cat people We don't need a leash Cat people, cat people Come scratch up the beat [Bridge] If the door stays closed You’ll call my name Not with words But you bring that flame Little shadow, little king Little velvet spark You rule the room Even in the dark [Chorus] Cat people, cat people We land on our feet Cat people, cat people Purring in the heat Cat people, cat people We don't need a leash Cat people, cat people Come scratch up the beat
