I was a fly under a swatter
Under a shoe
Under the water
Look at me now
So when you see the light
The light above you
You gotta reach for it
You gotta get it
'Cause the clutching beast is coming
And he bears his purple coat
Run up hills
Over fences
Death is always in me but I am in him also
I was a cat stuck in a tree
Blue moon gave me
One last wish and I used it well
'Cause the clutching beast is coming
And he bears his purple coat
Run up hills
Over fences
Death is always in me but I am in him also
I was a bird caught in a cage
Feast for a cat who didn't want me
Blue moon gave me
One last wish and I used it well
And now I'm living proof
On a dog a purr heard
The power of the tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-
