I had a shoe once I had a pair of them a little after that too I grew up
elsewhere where shoes were made of the cats hides after we ate 'em I'm
against eating cats today I could eat a cat in 3 seconds flat enough to be
cited for rudeness by my mother I was ruder than anybody on my block I could
be 5000 times as rude as anybody I was told You'll be seeing me hanging
around the alleys near the vietnamese restaurants Those can be dangerous
places for me and for cats but I buy some protection for $800 a week and its
well worth it before I bought the protection I had a big punch up but you
should have seen the other guy I hope I don't get into too many more of
those young people, don't get me started never ate a good cat never had a
good pair a shoes and have they ever tried to buy a steak sometimes they get
their lazy asses in my way and i'd like to off them or they should buy
insurance so that they can pay me for hitting them instead of just
apologizing oh and if I offed 'em I wouldn't disturb anybody in the
surrounding area unless there was a tasty cat, ooh he'd be in alot of
trouble I can tell you and who the hell slashed my tire he's in big trouble
too yeah.
