about

It bears stating that this goes for your dog, too. Probably your ferret, guinea pig, or spider monkey as well. Maybe the occasional bird. Arachnids, insects, snakes, and lizards are probably out though. Probably.

These songs and this album (not to mention my career) simply would not be possible without supporters and patrons like Robin Abess, Randy Brown, Jon Haight, Les Howard, Brian Jackey, Jeremy Jackson & Jennifer Lewis, Michael Khandelwal, Josh Logan, Scot Mealy, Ame Morris, Amy Stuart, Scott & Melanie Wienhusen, John R. Woollard, and @oopswrongcookie. I am eternally grateful to them, and to all my supporters.

lyrics

I don’t wanna buy you a drink and no, I don’t care what you think
About politics, religion, or video games.
I don’t even want know your name…
I just wanna pet your cat.

I don’t wanna waste your time with lame-ass played out pick up lines
Or make believe I care whatever’s on your mind.
I sure as hell don’t wanna know your sign.
I just want pet your cat.

I wanna give that kitty skritches, get its hair all over the place
Snuggle up and cuddle, maybe let it lick my face
And give it a treat.
I just wanna pet your cat.

No it’s not a metaphor, no weirdo red flag warning,
I don’t wanna care about how we’ll feel in the morning.
You don’t want my hang ups and I don’t need your baggage
I just want to hear it purr and maybe give it snackage.
And maybe... maybe a toy.
I just wanna pet your cat.

I wanna give that kitty skritches, get its hair all over the place
Snuggle up and cuddle, maybe let it lick my face
And give it a treat.

I just wanna pet your cat.
I don’t wanna buy you a drink and no, I don’t care what you think
About politics, religion, or video games.
I don’t even want know your name…
I just wanna pet your cat.
