← Now That's What I Call Eclectic
Software Update
Cedar is so strange that I'm half convinced she's what a machine spits out when you ask it for 'cat.' Then one day a hawk stood on our porch staring at her through the window, the incident that worried Mr. Mazer, and only after that did she finally start grooming herself properly. Must have been a software update. A tongue-in-cheek nod to making music with AI, and a love song to a weird little cat I get along with just fine.
There's a faker in my house
Not a real cat hunting mouse
Cedar Cat's a fake, a spy
Listen now I'll tell you why
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Stealing hair ties, singing songs
I love how we can get along
She's A I approximate
Ask a machine for cat, she's what you get
Made of parts from here and there
Rabbit nose, and human stare
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Napping in the closet there
Covering my stuff with hair
She lounges on the bed so strange
Insists on pillow for her brain
When she thinks we're gone, she sniffs around
Sings songs of a peeping sound
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Wrestle with the other cats
Got moves to pin them to the mat
Since she came, she smelled so weird
But after comments, her cover feared
Software update so dispatched
Add the grooming habits lacked
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Laying down to watch TV
When it stops, you stare at me
Did she learn it from online?
Maybe read a helpful sign?
No, she learned, without a talk
Locking eyes with nearby hawk
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
On a pillow, you insist
Just the bed's not good to sit
It showed up on our front step
Looked right at us instead of left
It knew that it had been seen
But on its mission super keen
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Staring out the window pane
Documenting local fame
Mr. Mazer, freaking out
Meowed I had to get the birdie out
I told him it was outside
As it looked me in the eye
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Stinking up my house with farts
Cedar Cat, you've stolen hearts
Oddest feeling in that breath
I knew why it was on our step
Updating Cedar Cat the goal
So I left it all alone
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Doesn't matter you're not real
Doesn't change the way we feel
She's doing better now, with that
Acting more like normal cat
When she thinks we're listening
When we're not, she still will sing
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Fake cat, fake cat, I see you
I know about the things you do
Cedar Cat, Cedar, I love you
I know about the things you do
I know about the things you do
I love most of the things you do
And thanks for learning to groom
