Kitten Got Claws Lyrics

She is a smart girl.
Extremely insecure, but she's a smart girl.
She had a good man
with nothing in his pockets and a big plan.
It was a hard year.
Everyone was moving to a new place.
It was a hard year.
Everything was changing at a fast pace.


That kitten got claws and a list of all the pressure points between your shoulders.
That kitten got claws and a reason to be jealous of the things you do.
That kitten's the cause of all the tension in your system;
the tension in your body and soul, that kitten got claws.
That kittens got claws.


Why does she need him?
He travels with the circus on the weekend.
Why does she need him?
as soon as he gets home he's got to leave again.
He needs a real job.
She's bringing home the bacon with her pants on.
He needs a real job.
a suit and tie and children on the front lawn.


That kitten got claws and a list of all the pressure points between your shoulders.
That kitten got claws and a reason to be jealous of the things you do.
That kitten's the cause of all the tension in your system;
the tension in your body and soul, that kitten got claws.
That kittens got claws.


i'd like to be optimistic and say we'll strike it rich in a year or two.
Do you have to be so pessimistic?
I need you to believe in the things I do.
(need you to believe in the things I do)
The things I do...


That kitten got claws and a list of all the pressure points between your shoulders.
That kitten got claws and a reason to be jealous of the things you do.
That kitten's the cause of all the tension in your system;
the tension in your body and soul, that kitten got claws.
That kittens got claws.
