Black Cat

Well, the black cat crossed me, Waverly Lane

Well, the black cat crossed me, Waverly Lane

Well, the black crossed me, I ain't never been the same

Sleeping babies cried, the crows took flight

Lightening shot up from the ground to the sky

When that black cat crossed me with it's one green eye

I was walking by the river, I saw Jesus on the bridge

I was walking by the river, I saw Jesus on the bridge

In one hand he held up a railroad tie

In the other he had food for the pigeons

He said, "That black cat cross you, girl, you don't need no religion."

Well, a sinkhole opened up in the middle of Baxter Street

I said a sinkhole opened up in the middle of Baxter Street

Now the yuppies and the hippies and the hipsters and retailers

Are lying in a hole down at my feet

Well, that black cat cross you, you don't ask it what it means!

Well I changed all of the pollen in the air to hundred dollar bills

Well I changed all of the pollen in the air to hundred dollar bills

The devil rose before me, he said, "You don't have to adore me

But I need fewer people down here on pills, ahhh!"

But the black cat crossed me, so I moved in for the kill!

Well, the black cat crossed me, it turned the night into the day

Oh, the black cat crossed me, it turned the night into the day

Well, that black cat crossed me, now everything is going my way!
