about

We have a rule in our house. Anyone with a cat on their lap is exempt. FROM EVERYTHING. I guess I (Sandy) was in a Shel Silverstein kind of mood when I wrote this poem, based on our beloved Sasha (RIP). Later decided to put it to music in a sort of nod to "House of The Rising Sun".

lyrics

I can’t get up to get the door
I can’t get out of bed
For there’s this cat upon my lap
You’ll have to go instead

I need to get my needlepoint
My template and my thread
But there’s this cat upon my lap
You’ll have to go instead

The bikes and rakes and shovels
need to go back in the shed
But there’s this cat upon my lap
You’ll have to go instead

The laundry pile is three miles high
The children must be fed
But there’s this cat upon my lap
You’ll have to go instead

I’m getting ancient, old and gray
I really should be dead
But there’s this cat upon my lap
You’ll have to go instead
