Alley Cat Lyrics
tonight I'm an alley cat yeah,
more afraid of you than you are of me
but if you leave some food out on the porch,
I might stay till there's nothing left to eat
I could sit alone in a lunch room in high school
if I wasn't sitting alone at a punk show in ashville
Tonight the upper left hand side of my chsest
has a hole as big as the one in my pocket
I mighta kissed you wearing a bulletproof vest
but hell, you kiss like a rocket
I'd be a teenage virgin jerking off in my bedroom
if I wasn't a 20 year old virgin that didn't have a bedroom
more afraid of you than you are of me
but if you leave some food out on the porch,
I might stay till there's nothing left to eat
I could sit alone in a lunch room in high school
if I wasn't sitting alone at a punk show in ashville
has a hole as big as the one in my pocket
I mighta kissed you wearing a bulletproof vest
but hell, you kiss like a rocket
I'd be a teenage virgin jerking off in my bedroom
if I wasn't a 20 year old virgin that didn't have a bedroom
Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
This song is about just confronting the love one has for someone and how lonely they are with out that other person
Pat once said at a show that this song is about his "crippling social anxiety that ruins my life all the time." I think it has to do with being so out of touch that you feel that there is no place for you in society.
This song is actually called "Just Because I Don't Say Anything Don't Mean I Got Nothing To Say," and it's already on this site.
