Letra de Cat's Blues

I'm gonna turn my back for awhile now
While nothing bad can or will befall
The lights welcome me all by myself
And the fires only bronze, they do not burn
Well, do you understand, girls, where it's going?
I'll fuck, girls, if there's violence to come
Why, happiness, so happy now
They're crying, ere the night has come
Children in the fields, they play, they reel
Scolded when they come home, dirty, crying
Well, love is forbidden outwardly
But inside there is no denying, oh
So do all the shy boys bury their hats?
And they suffer while they waste and hurt
They are men who bow before us now
And I do not trust them, no
How many children are there like this?
Yeah, and how many will I serve?
O if I could have a clue what justice is
It would be more than I deserve, oh
O time is passing, come into my house
Loot the pantries and muss the sheets
Ere you've found a useful trinket here
Your host will be ten miles on by
