lyrics

Fat Cat, Skinny Cat
© 2011 The Squirrel Hillbillies

Skinny cat eat on the microwave
Fat cat eat on the floor
Fat cat eat what skinny cat leave
When skinny cat eat no more
Skinny cat only like fresh food
Fat cat he don't care
Skinny cat always hanging out
Fat cat hiding somewhere

Fat cat, skinny cat
Live just two doors down
I stop in to see them
When their family not around

Skinny cat he get a kitty treat
But I can't remember when
Fat cat he get hairballs
Gotta brush him now and then
I read all the instructions
Put them in this song
Fat Cat Skinny Cat
They always sing along

Fat cat, skinny cat
Live just two doors down
I stop in to see them
When their family not around

Skinny cat say to fat cat,
"Hey the chickens flew the coop!
Time for us to have some fun
Let's go and shoot some hoops
Paint our nails, curl our hair
Play some air guitar
Raise the door on the shed out back
And drive that nice sports car!"

Fat cat, skinny cat
Live just two doors down
I stop in to see them
When their family not around

Fat Cat say to Skinny Cat,
"Don't want no trouble, man
Just leave me be and let me eat
There's tuna in that can
Them folks of ours they tight, you know
They limit what I get
Now they gone I'm gonna feast
So hand me that baguette!"

Fat cat, skinny cat
Live just two doors down
I stop in to see them
When their family not around
