Lyrics Cat Stevens – Cat & The Dog Trap

Cat’s in the Yard
Fancy free
Dog barges round, says,
«You can’t catch me!

There was a time
When I was younger
I’d chase the tail
Of any danger
About to learn
About to learn

Cat jumps the fence
Lands in a pram
Baby cries, «Mama!»
Out runs the man
Cat gets the can

There was a time
When I was bolder
I’d chase the heels
Of any stranger
About to learn
About to learn, ohhhh

Cat’s in a cage
Chained to a stone
Empty bowl by his side
Just an old fish bone
Dreams of home

There was a time
A long way back
When I would fall
