Here I sit, quietly free
but oh, I hope they don't find me!
My day has been extremely hard...
so I escaped out to the yard.
At home, I am the biggest star,
but those I own just go too far!
The little one put me in a dress;
she caused me such a great distress!
I would expect more from the boy
... he chased me with a laser toy.
I asked for just a simple snack,
then baby sat down on my back...
I tried to rest where it was cool...
'til bulldog woke me with his drool.
Is this how they treat dignity?
They have no sense of royalty!
My hairball gift will thus connote
my absence, my departure note.
I guess it's hunting grounds tonight -
from them, I'm staying out of sight!
Here I sit in watchful glee...
but oh, I hope they don't find me!
