Screaming in silence

fast on her feet



nervously feeling fear on the street.

No moving traffic

only the odd wing in the air



a shaft of light

a strand of hair

no time

no time to despair.



There's a cat among the pigeons

there's a pain in her chest



while the cat's among the pigeons there'll be no rest.



Gasping for breath in the cold of the night



patiently waiting for love at first sight.

Yes is the answer

but as the wind takes her hair



a piston thrust

a moment shared

no time

no time to despair.



There's a cat among the pigeons

there's a pain in her chest



while the cat's among the pigeons he'll take the best.



And the world keeps turning

and the boy keeps learning



who will be the one to put the cat among the pigeons now ?



There's a cat among the pigeons

there's a pain in her chest



while the cat's among the pigeons there'll be no rest.



There's a cat among the pigeons

there's a pain in her chest



while the cat's among the pigeons he'll take the best.

There's a cat among the pigeons !
