[Verse 1]
Baby, I'm around you enough to know when you're coming down
And I am there with a smile, prepared to bring you around
You're thinking that you've got me trained
I'm aware of that
But when you need your outlook changed
Baby, I'm the cat

[Verse 2]
Baby, I'm allowed to be late when I'm coming home
You know I'll be there when I want to
And you let me roam
You think you've got me figured out
I don't know about that
But when you wanna twist and shout
Baby, I'm the cat

[Chorus]
Baby, I might not be all that
Your fortune cookie promised you
But I will do
I'm the cat
Baby, I
Baby, I'm the cat
Oh yeah, I
Baby, I'm the cat
[Verse 3]
Baby, I'm in love with the way you scratch my back
You've got the only thing I want
And that's a fact
And when sometimes we disagree
You take me to the mat
But when I get you spinning free
Baby I'm the cat

[Chorus]
Baby, I might not be all that
The gypsy woman prophesized
But be advised
I'm the cat
Baby I might not be all that
Your Magic Eight Ball said I'd be
But you will see
I'm the cat
Baby, I
Baby, I'm the cat
Oh yeah, I
Baby, I'm the cat
