[Verse 1] Asakusa sunrise, up on the roofs Wake to the smell of fish—that’s my cue Past Ueno, down to Yanaka The tighter the alley, the more it’s mine No collar No plans Got a few good spots to crash One patch of sun gets five stars AC vents keep winter warm People take trains I take the walls No waiting for green Next neighborhood calls [Hook] Life’s good for a cat in Tokyo Roof to roof across Tokyo People rush I just sleep That’s about The pace I keep Life’s good for a cat in Tokyo Lane to lane across Tokyo No house of my own But a place to come home? All over town Yeah, I’ve got those [Beat Switch] Koenji Evening Market street Something smells good Rain in Nakano Borrow some shelter [Female - Distant] That cat’s here again! [Male Cat] You bet. [Verse 2] Shinjuku neon Way too bright One street back Now that’s more like it Shibuya, before The first train runs Under the tracks I wash my face Bells Footsteps Trains far away I hear it all No need to hurry A map app? Don’t need that The wind and the smells Tell me where I’m at [Glitch Hook] TOKYO MEOW TOKYO MEOW Dawn in Asakusa Night in Shibuya Everything between? Just taking a stroll [Final Hook] Life’s good for a cat in Tokyo People rush by, I take it slow Asakusa, Ueno Koenji Nakano, Shinjuku To Shibuya Life’s good for a cat in Tokyo Out on my own, wherever I go Nobody owns me Nobody rushes me When I get sleepy That’s where I sleep
