Time and time again I say I see right through you Uphill climb you say when I tell you I'm no fool Going through this groundhog day You always saying to me Stay hound dog stay Throw me a bone or leave me alone Girl just go go go Until tomorrow anyway Stray cat go back where you been I'm still searching for that zen within Ascend transcend Zen within Throw your bombs I'll find peace and calm You can scratch But I quit crawling Hiss and howl You won't hear me growl Go on and bite but I'm done brawling In plain sight your tiger stripes I'm staying out of that lion's den On and on it goes No way that we can keep up Almost gone in the throes Don't waste those moves on me Been down that back alley before Playing hide and seek No thanks no encore All on your terms only confirms I say no no no Here comes comeuppance any day Stray cat go back where you been I'm still searching for that zen within Ascend transcend Zen within Had nine lives Teeth like carving knives Met your match And so you tantrum Body and soul I'm just trying to stay whole My mantra Now an anthem You smile I see panther's teeth Cagey cougar in her playpen
