Lyric:
THEM CATS

Black cat down the alley
A riot at the city hall
An upcoming rally
And they’re building a wall
I couldn’t care less 
‘bout the marching on the streets
I listen for your footsteps
Just tryin’ to keep the beat

Tomcat’s been missin’ 
since you went away
Prowlin’ ‘round the graveyard, 
that’s what they say
Say God cursed this city, 
say God cursed our home
It sure is a pity, 
ol’ tomcat’s gone

Rats big as cats
Satan gets his share
It’s a town of plenty
n’ evil everywhere
Adam raised a Cain
Gonna lead a better life
I’ll meet you at the train
Better bring me knife

Oh, hear them cats moan 
from the pines to the rooftops 
I hear their song
Oh, I hear them moan 
from the pines to the rooftops, 
I hear their song 

Wait a minute 
There’s blood at your door
Didn’t come to meet me
See a crowd, hear a roar
There’s a fire ‘hind the fence 
and a rope from a tree
Black cat on the branch 
looking down at me

Them Cats

Them Cats (feat. Jojje Wadenius)

I have gone through many ups and downs
Now I’m facing another bitter frown
It took me by surprise
I couldn’t recognize my eyes
I didn’t know where I’s supposed to stand
I believe it’s the folly of man

Way out in the east, a war machine has risen
Way out west, there’s a sausage glistening
I wonder, how’ll take the first bite?
How’ll take him down with all his might ?
Me, I’m just hanging with my cowboy band
I guess what I’m saying, it’s the folly of man

Everything has come to a bitter end
And we haven’t even turned the next corner of the bend…

The people who don’t fit into this massive frame
Of life – the one we’re living – without ideals or shame
Where might they find shelter from the storm?
Were they ever busy being born?
I just don’t know how much of this I can stand
It must be another folly of man

Folly of Man

Cover - Green Day - When It's Time

Nineteen is an intimate indie-pop ballad about heartbreak at 19. With acoustic and electric guitars, piano, and a cinematic build, it tells the story of loving someone who preferred the cold while you needed warmth. Emotional and bittersweet, it explores heartbreak, coming of age, and nostalgia.
