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 !
