Letra da Música Cat's Eye In The Window de Tommy James And The Shondells

There's a cat's eye in the window
Looking at the haps that go undone
Taking in the rats, that's not the evil
The devil is the cat that's got your tongue

Well, I went for a walk in the country
Where they say the air is really fresh and clean
I hear that mother nature doesn't care for the city
But the people here are just as mean
Well, I came upon a beautiful mansion
And it was old, about three hundred years

And the gate was so rusty that I kicked it down
I walked closer, here's how it appeared
There were four huge pillars that were cracked so bad
That I couldn't figure out how they stood
Well, the glass was all busted
But, my God, the things must have once upon a time looked awful good

There's a cat's eye in the window
Looking at the haps that go undone
Taking in the rats, that's not the evil
The devil is the cat that's got your tongue

It was many, many, many times a millionaire's home
And the master must have been quite a man
But for some strange reason I became so mad
Because I just could not understand
How could anybody build such a beautiful dream
And let it sit and rot and die in the sun
Then it suddenly came to me the house was humanity
And history had finally won
I walked away with a terrible feeling
'Cause I suddenly realized
I was looking at the epitaph of good mother earth
And I could hardly keep the tears from my eyes

There's a cat's eye in the window
Looking at the haps that go undone
Taking in the rats, that's not the evil
The devil is the cat that's got your tongue
Cat's eye in the window. Cat's eye
