Like A Cat

I lived in your shadow
 I drove your car
 You thought I belonged in your four walls
 I was never your bunny
 I was never, never your pet
 When you threw me out the window
 I landed on my feet
 Yeah, you threw me out the window
 Like a, like a, like a cat
 Hey, mister, you can never own me
 I only let you hold me like a cat
 And mister, you can never know me
 I only let you stroke me, like a, like a
 ♪
 You thought I'd be purring
 Curled up by your fire
 Don't want to be kept for your desire
 You said I should be happy
 But it only made me sad
 And when you could never tame me
 That made you mad
 No, you could never tame me
 Like a, like a, like a cat
 Hey mister, you can never own me
 I only let you hold me like a cat
 And mister, you can never know me
 I only let you stroke me
 You rescued me, I didn't want to be saved
 I got tired of your missionary position, babe

 No, you never can own me, like a cat
 No, you never can own me, like a hat
 No, you never can own me, like a cat
