This is the new improved lyrics section which has the lyrics to all of Cats Don't Melt on it as well as some others that have since been cast into the black hole of "were never playing these songs ever again".  This section will eventually contain the more recent favorites such as "Part Time Girlfriend" and "Cable Jane".  This section was made so that the rad people among you can learn all the words and sing along at gigs which automatically would make you very rad and the envy of all your friends.

Why Cant You Be More Like Me?

I always wake up, on the wrong side of the floor

I'd like to think it's just a phase and nothing more

But what would you have me do, when I can't see your walk

I wanna party, all you wanna do is talk

 

I-e-i can't be here forever and it's

My-e-i personal endeavor

Why take it so seriously

Next you'll wanna marry me. Just

I-e-i act your age and make it plain to see

Why can't you just make it plain to see

 

So what's the reason, is it the season if we could

Or is it something more disgusting, well that's good

I love the feeling of not knowing what you did last night

But when you tell me lies you know I know it's shite

 

CHORUS

 

Why can you just not be more like me?

Tuesday

1.Just thought I'd tell you, about what she said
Seconds before she crept out of my bed,
She broke my heart and she ruined my dreams,
She grabbed me by the soul and ripped it at the seams
It seems now that guys don't turn her on,
Since she's been sleeping with a girl named Siobhan,
So listen guys, to my last words,
don't ever go with girls who treat you like turds.

Don't live for tomorrow, don't relive the sorrow
Live for today, don't live your life any other way
And don't hesitate, cos all you'll ever seem to do is wait
For life to pass you by, have some fun before you die my friend

2. Mamma just found out that her kid's gone bad,
He's the spitting image of his Dad,
He went to school but he couldn't get the knack,
So now he gets by, by dealing in crack,
Mamma can't stand it she wants to go fly
To a better place in the sky,
Hold on Mamma I'll tell you what to do,
Listen to these words and they'll see you through

CHORUS

3.Your girlfriends left you, Your car's been stole
You just lost your job so now you're on the dole
It never stops raining and when it does you're sick,
You look like shit and feel like it,
You should be out partying, you shouldn't give a toss,
Get out there and show the world who's boss,
Pull yourself together, yeah and do it quick, tell the world to go suck your dick.

CHORUS

I live for tomorrow, I relive the sorrow Couldn't live for today, can't live my life any other way,
I had to hesitate, now all I ever seem to do is wait,
For life to pass me by, all I seem to do is cry so …

CHORUS

In Hindsight

 

I read it in your face, or was it in a book?

Your so so so so out of luck

And everything you've seen is reminiscent of the past

If you look back their gonna kick your sorry ass

 

In hindsight, I look back now

And I'm holding on on on

In hindsight, I look back now

Coz were done for and it's over

On on on and on

 

Nothing seems to bother you

You never seem to care

There's just one little thing that's left you feelin' out the bed

And tho' I am a mess right now, Tho' I'm feelin' blue

You'd better watch your back because I'm gonna get you too

 

CHORUS

 

CHORUS after middle bit.

Mr. Cynical

 

We sweat blood

Because we're hardcore y'see it's like

What about Raven?  But what about me?

So what if this is good because it's still the revolution

And y'never heard me say that I would answer the solution

If you wanna gamble it will not be nice

Coz this old school shit, it comes with a price

Any of you bitches wanna have your say

Better watch out Mr. Pay Per View's gonna come your way

 

I'm trying to describe the things I see

But I can't believe

I know it's right down there inside of me

I just can't believe

 

And now what do you wanna be?

Singin' what about coffee, but what about tea

You think you got away but the postman knocks twice

And he's comin' right back for another cheese slice

Gonna change his brain for another coz

When you get so far away y'know it's hard to recover

I've got to deal the hand, I'll have to leave

Go and get your seat

 

I'm trying to explain the things I see

But I can't believe

I know it's right down there inside of me

I just can't believe

 

CHORUS

ON BENZOCAINE

1.You cut off all your fingers, and you trade them in for eyes
But something in the things you see, may come as a surprise
Maybe I'll keep a ginger fish, in a tank there by the sea
Maybe I'll see a grim lizard, Oh SIIINNCCII!!!!!

CHORUSSo take me, where you used to play,
And tell me, what you used to say,
D'ya want it, But enough of me thinkin' on.

1.So we'll move to Mexico, and start to eat guacamole
Work there for a drugs cartel, and stash coke in a hole,
Then we'll get arrested, and for more than section 8,
Run around then realise, but it's too LAAAAATTTEE!!

LIVE FOR TODAY

1. So make the best of all the chances that we have
It's not enough just sitting there and feeling sad
And it ain't the right time, but it's still today
So make it today, today, today

2.And it's no good standing there alone out in the cold
Gather up the ones you love and together you'll grow old
Maybe looking back will bring a smile to your face
Of today, today, today

CHORUS So what's the story
Does it have no end
What about the glory
You failed to make amends
So step outside and realise and remember what to say

Step into the doorway of today (3 times)
