Treat Me Like Your Cat

 Treat Me Like Your Cat


Gregg Metcalf (June 11, 2018)
Chorus:
So, just treat me like your cat
And I’ll be happy with that
Feed me till I’m nice and fat
Just treat me like your cat
Verse 1 – Shelter
You brought your little kitty home
Now he sleeps inside with you
Protected from the wind and rain
Sheltered from the late night dew
Verse 2 - Food
Three times a day you fill his dish
His tummy is filled with yummy things
Like lamb and beef and sometimes fish
He doesn’t know the pain hunger brings
Verse 3 - Healthcare
Your little guy never needs to fear
You have a healthcare plan for him
His vet will care for him its clear
No lack of treatment or medicine
Verse 4 - Love
House and home food and care
With no worries he is so secure
All that’s yours you gladly share
The good life is his for all his tenure
Verse 5 – The Homeless
I have no shelter from rain or cold
And I am hungry most all the time
No health care to help me grow old
Loved by no one, few who are kind
Verse 6 – The Plea
So, I have only one thing to ask
I don’t want special treatment man
If you only treat me like your cat
I’d be far better off than I am
Chorus:
So, just treat me like your cat
And I’ll be happy with that
Feed me till I’m nice and fat
Just treat me like your cat
