Lyrics
1
Looking out the window, staying inside, nobody’s driving down the road.
Daylight’s dimming and it’s filling up with haze; weather tries to talk to us in
code.
Red-tail hawk stalking sparrows in the bush, hoping for a win on New Year’s Eve.
Something in the air’s absorbing all the sound waiting for the voice of Twenty-three
CHORUS:
Please, please play that melody; the one where the cats all sing.
Yeah, stand there so they can see; they'll be singing while they watch your strings.

High-pitched yowling, clever conversation, you’ll recognize the call and response.
Midnight tolling, shouting out the door, kitties always tell you what they want.
Returning to the story of that red-tail hawk, ended with a big near miss.
Not quite the measure of a modern operetta, sparrow disappeared into the mist.
CHORUS
3
Firecracker neighbors lighting up the street, still no sign of any cars;
Out with the old, in with the new? Barely see a change among the stars.
To understand the meaning flapping in the breeze, listen to a song with no words;
Cats in the window, batting at the lights, wishing they could get to those birds.
CHORUS
