Lost Kitten - Metric

Don’t say yes if you can’t say no,

Victim of the system, say it isn’t so

Squatted on the doorstep, swallowed all the blow

Leaving without you, can’t say no

Halfway starts with happiness for me

Halfway house, lost kitten in the street

Hit me where it hurts, I’m coming home to lose

Kitten on the catwalk, high-heeled shoes

No more hot-headed Saturdays,

They got it, they want it, they give it away

Tell me one thing you would never do

I was looking for a hooker when I found you

You’ve got my eyes, you’ve got my eyes

You’ll never be mine, ah, but you’ve got my eyes

When you lie, I cover it up

When you hide, I cover it up

When you cry, I cover it up

When you come undone, I cover it up

So pent up, I was coming home to you

Happy in the nighttime, howlin' at the moon

Sippin' on a cocktail, drinking in the loo

There’s something about you I hold on to

You’ve got my eyes, you’ve got my eyes

You’ll never be mine, ah, but you’ve got my eyes

When you lie, I cover it up

When you hide, I cover it up

When you cry, I cover it up

When you’re blind, I cover it up

When you lie, I cover it up,

When you hide, I cover it up

When you cry, I cover it up

When you come undone, I cover it up

They got it, they want it, they give it away

They got it, they want it, they give it away

They got it, they want it, they give it away

They got it, they want it, they give it away

They got it, they want it, they give it away

(When you lie, I cover it up)

They got it, they want it, they give it away

(When you hide, I cover it up)

They got it, they want it, they give it away

(When you cry, I cover it up)

They got it, they want it, they give it away

(When you come undone, I cover it up)
