theres a cat on the steps
and I sure could use a lesson from her
she got sly yellow eyes
she got three-coloured crazy-quilt fur
she slinks and creeps, she leaps and she teases
but whatever she does, she does just as she pleases
ooh shes the calico cat
when shes feeling lazy,
she just stretches out in the sun
oh but when shes feeling crazy
she got all the local dogs on the run
shes lean and mean, shes a backyard queen
and she looks out for number one
and nobody can break her heart
on those hot summer nights
all the toms come round to woo her
but she turns up her nose
cause they dont mean a damn thing to her
well shell pick them over when shes in the mood
but when shes not, look out,
she aint afraid to be rude
ooh shes the calico cat
when shes feelin lazy
ooh shes the calico cat
