Lyrics
- The moon is high above the city,
- Up on this fence, I'm feelin' blue
- Singing my heart out to faceless windows,
- 'Cause I got nothing better to do,
- Down by the church, some dog is howling,
- About some bone that got away,
- Now is that dumb?
- Is that pathetic?
- Guess he's got nothing better to say,
- Take a mouse, he's got the soul of a burglar,
- Take a dog, he's got the soul of a clown,
- But a cat's got the soul of an artist,
- And ya can't shut him up, when he's down,
- I got to sing, to show my feelin's,
- If I wake you up, well, that's nothing new,
- But if you listen to what I'm saying,
- You'll know that you got nothing better to do...
