Kitty's First Words lp

"Kitty's First Words"

This album has been in the works for over five years. I have worked on it one week at a time each year. The title has evolved from "Pete Sounds" (abandoned after I read that Pete Wylie - a luminary in an early-80s Liverpudlian scene near and dear to my heart, no less - had the audacity to steal the title that I had copyrighted secretly in my head) to "Subanimal Sounds" to "The Eternal Meow," and finally, to "Kitty's First Words," where it rests today.

Lyrics

Cat Of The Month

She was the “Cat of the Month” it said
When I went in to find a new friend
Went into it with all my hope dead

When I got her home she made the rounds
In the evening I played her Pet Sounds
Then I knew it; my friend had been found

Now she’s always on the window sill
Wanting only to make a fresh kill
And she’ll do it – she knows her own will

Looking Alive

In a world where the head is hollow and it haunts the hands so hard the heart goes blind
One boy will walk out
