Текст песни The Cat Loves the Mouse (The Beautiful South) с переводом

We’ve come a long way from the cave

What, you started to shave?

Now we know just how to behave

Since chivalry decided to bathe

And as the skirts we wore were increasingly high

Till the hem was just a cloud in the sky

And the chat up lines got increasingly fly

As the truth bought a suit and a tie

The cat loves the mouse, the mouse loves the cheese

The bees love the birds, the birds love those bees

The bee loves that honey, so honey, please

Why are we so different to these?

So when I’m old and I’m gray (you know, you already are)

When I’m overweight (you know, you already are)

If I’ve overstayed my welcome by a day

Just feel free to say (you know, I already have)

The cat chases bird to the top of the tree

The dog chases postman to the end of the street

The postman he chases every girl that he meets

So why are we so different to these?

I’ve been your bird, I’ve been your bitch

I’ve been whatever B you ever wished

I’ve been your cat, I’ve been your chick

I’ve been which ever C you ever thought to pick

I’ve been your bat, I’ve been your cow

I’ve been whichever B and C that you’d allow

I’ve been your dog, your dragon and your duck

I’ve been whatever D you thought was cool to fuck…
