Cleopatra’s Cat Lyrics By Spin Doctors

    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

    caesar had an eye for clothes
    he saw them spats and said i like those
    caesar had no thing to say except
    jesu christi domine
    et tu brute
    jesu christi domine
    et tu brute

    the senate tried to sympathize
    it was the cat they should despise
    informant told his whereabouts
    centurions to seek him out

    centurions there go the centurions

    brutus had to turn his head
    when this cat done went and said
    if he’s got this thing for shoes
    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

    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
