lyrics

Brush the dust off your coat
And adjust your tie
Your leather chair spins around
Just waiting, clock watching

Straighten out the page
Until the shadows splay
You trace a sunbeam's ray
With a familiar stroke
And now you only wipe
Your own spot at the glass
You could make like a rabbit
But you keep breathing fast

And all this time you tuck out of sight
Cats only go car watching in the night
You turn left left when you're told to turn right
Cats only go car watching at night

I sent a letter to you
Signed by my hometown
Requesting a picturesque view
And a new attitude
Will you return my call
After your fifth excuse
You're wasting their nine to fives
Like the pockets in your suit

And all this time you tuck out of sight
Cats only go car watching in the night
You turn left left when you're told to turn right
Cats only go car watching at night
