Title: 15 Hungry Cats
Post by: Mike_S on December 14, 2019, 10:51:12 AM
Have a feeling this might be my last effort this side of Christmas unfortunately... but let's see...

She thinks of the times
That went before
Hangs on to feelings
That come along no more

She thinks of the people
The good and the bad
Remembering the life
That she once used to have

The hopes that she had
Left without a trace
Now they're only seen
In lines upon her face
There was a time
The days were filled with joy
Now fifteen hungry cats
Is all she's got


She used to be a part
Of the Rock n' Roll scene
But now it's only maybes
And what might have beens

But now it all seems
Like so long ago
And the lights went out
On the Rock 'n Roll show

The hopes that she had
Left without a trace
Now they're only seen
In lines upon her face
There was a time
The days were filled with joy
Now fifteen hungry cats
Is all she's got

Just amazing track, Mike! I'm loving this right from the intro - this goes forward like a train!

Perfect tone on your guitar!

I like it Mike! The tone on your guitar is super....just the right amount of brightness and crunch. Cool lyric and vocal. I think I know this cat lady, lol! Nicely done my fellow rocker.

Brilliant lyrics, loved the concept here and a great twist at the end. I guess this may apply to most of us, although you could probably substite the 15 cats for 15 guitars or pedals or something similar  ;D

Great guitar work, loved the sounds you used and the playing is really spot on. Nice chord structure a clever lyrical lead. Very nice work Mike.

Very catchy tune, Mike. And you got a great guitar tone on it - lots of ringing and chime.
