Whiskers Beat Her

[Verse 1]
You come over, shoes off
Drop your bag by the door
She rubs my ankle first
Like she’s done this before

You say my name like a dare
Then leave me hanging there
But my cat on the couch
Makes me feel seen and cared

[Pre-Chorus]
She purrs when I’m sad
You only pull away
She curls in my lap
And she makes my heart stay

[Chorus]
My cat is kinder
My cat is kinder
She never makes me guess
My cat is kinder
My cat is kinder
You could learn from that, I guess

[Verse 2]
You read my texts too slow
Then act like I’m the one
But she brings me the toy mouse
Like, baby, what’s up, hun?

You look at me and smile
Then turn cold in a flash
She knocks my hand with her paw
And stays when I’m a mess

[Pre-Chorus]
She purrs when I’m sad
You only pull away
She curls in my lap
And she makes my heart stay

[Chorus]
My cat is kinder
My cat is kinder
She never makes me guess
My cat is kinder
My cat is kinder
You could learn from that, I guess

[Bridge]
You leave me on read
She waits by the bed
You say maybe, maybe
She says come here instead

One little head bump
And I melt like that
Funny how love works
When it comes wrapped in a cat

[Final Chorus]
My cat is kinder
My cat is kinder
She never makes me guess
My cat is kinder
My cat is kinder
You could learn from that, I guess

My cat is kinder
My cat is kinder
And she’s winning this contest
