Cleopatra’s Cat Lyrics by Spin Doctors

Just Go Ahead Now: A Retrospective

0

Cleopatra's favorite cat
Got his hands on Caesar's spats
The heat was on as you could see
So he front 'em to Mark Antony
Said, "My girlfriend's cat is smarter than me"
"My girlfriend's cat is smarter than me"

Said, Brutus had an eye for clothes
He saw them spats, he said, "I like those"
Caesar had no thing to say
Except "Jesu Christi Domine
Et tu, Brute, well
Jesu Christi Domine
Et tu, Brute"

Well, the senate tried to sympathize
It was this cat they should despise
Informant told his whereabouts
Centurion to seek him out

Centurions
There go the centurions

Cleopatra's favorite cat
Cleopatra's favorite cat

Brutus had to turn his head
When this cat done went and said
"If he's got this thing for shoes
I said, he just might be ambitious, too
They got holidays all in his name
And all a tyrant needs is fame
Those fascists don't play pretty games
Egypt is the place to be
But Rome is a democracy
Rome"

My girlfriend's cat is smarter than me
My girlfriend's cat is smarter than me
Cleopatra's favorite cat, meow

Caesar never got them back
'Cause they killed his ass in the second act
Brutus spoke, then Antony
Said, "My girlfriend's cat is smarter than me
Friends, Romans, can't you see?
My girlfriend's cat is smarter than me
Egypt's biggest rivalry
Cleopatra's cat and me
Cleopatra's cat and me
Cleopatra's cat and me
Cleopatra's cat and"
