One bright sunny day
The sun was shining
The cats were out at play
I'd been running, had a stitch and I had an itch
And then something broke
And I almost choked
Then something jumped on my back
I hope it's a cat
'Cos it's black and it's got big noshers

One more drink for the road
People will swear
There's too many there
I ran over a toad
Get it straight
You're worth the wait
All together right now

Me and Eddie we were worse for wear
We were scratching our backs
We were scratching down there
Then I had a dream
I had a dream of one big giant claw
But I fell out of the bed
I fell to the floor
Trace laughed, she found it quite funny

One more drink at the road
People will swear
There's too many there
I ran over a toad
Get it straight
It wasn't our fault
And we sobbed

Someone said that Bryan Ferry was lame
Then somebody said he was cool
Just be hung in the Tate
So I agreed
I said he seems like a good idea to me
But I don't see the point of the Tate lets use him just as a tree

One more drink at the road
People will swear
There's too many there
I ran over a toad
Get it straight
The RSPCA was too late

One more drink for the road
The trendies were square
There's too many there
I ran over a toad
Get it straight
The RSPCA was too late

Then Ed Spoke, said the flea bites have disappeared
So I looked at his hairy limbs and they were all clear
Then something broke
And I almost choked
Altogether what a shame
Then something strapped to my back
I hope it's a cat
'cos it's black and that means it's quite lucky

One more drink at the road
People will swear
There's too many there
I ran over a toad
Get it straight
The worth the wait

You're going to like this
But not a lot
Yeah the kittens were taken away
By the RSPCA
But someone said they'd be topped
Me and Trace we burst into tears
And then a bloke in a black peak cap
Confirmed our worst fears
They were gone with a lethal injection

Freezed and black in the hole
The trendies were square
There's too many there
One more dead in the road
The cats have all gone
Just turned tail and run
Have all gone
