Socks' Outdoor Way

Lyrics

Verse 1
A shadow in the moonlight, sleek and bold,
Eyes like diamonds, heart turned cold.
He comes and goes, don't ask him why,
Disappearing before you can say goodbye.
With that tough stride, nothing slows him down,
But when he's hungry, you know he's around.
His soft sounds beckon, but don’t be fooled,
He’s only here ‘cause he's in the mood, (for food).

Chorus
He’s tough but soft when he wants to be,
Like a quiet king in his own city.
Shows affection when there’s something to gain,
But once he's fed, he's gone again.
Stirring trouble when he’s bored,
Loud messes you just can't ignore.
That’s just his way, no time to stay,
He’s living his life, the outdoor way.

Verse 2
Knocks a cup off with a casual stare,
He doesn’t care, as you stand and glare.
Licking his paws, while he gives you a look,
Like YOU'RE the one, who's off the hook.
Always makes time for a midnight snack,
Even if he's just been filled, he'll be back.
Leave a plate out, and he’ll make his move,
He's always in the mood, the mood for food.

Bridge
He’s a master of the ninja's stealth,
Rarely here, loves to be by himself.
You love him still, you can’t deny,
Even when he just walks right on by.
'Cause every now and then, he curls up close,
Just a glimpse of him, as he does his pose.

Chorus
He’s tough but soft when he wants to be,
Like a quiet king in his own city.
Shows affection when there’s something to gain,
But once he's fed, he's gone again.
Stirring trouble when he’s bored,
Loud messes you just can't ignore.
That’s just his way, no time to stay,
He’s living his life, the outdoor way.

Outro
Yeah, that’s the way, the way he plays,
Always doing things his own way.
His leg rubs, a royal deceit,
Again, food is his ultimate conceit.
Tough but soft, that’s just his style,
He’ll make you love him, all the while...
