A Cool Cat in Town
Tape Five Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aoohh, a cool – cat – in town!

It's late at night while the dogs are sleepin'!
She's leaving the cave and the wheels are turnin'!
A dancin' on ice, but the temperature's risin'!
She steps in the club and the walls are burnin'!

There's a cool cat in town – never settle down, cause she loves
Chasing the dogs around.

There's a new kid around, and she knows she is bound to be the
Leader of the whole rat-pack, and she wont wait for the return of the mac.

There's a cool cat in town, never going down.
One day she's even heading for the crown—
A cool – cat – in town.

When the cat's away, the mice are playin'!
They're messin'around till they all start swayin'!
Down in the club where the joint is jumpin'!
The birds and the bees and the hip chicks are swingin'!

There's a cool cat in town –
Oh, believe me, what a cool cat!

She wont wait for a new dog around, who dont likes some cats in town.




A cool kid around, ah-widdely-dop-ba-domb-ba -dooby!
A cool- cat- in toooooown!
