It is Squirrel Thursday! - Evil Squirrel and His Cat

Back there at his place late at night, when the owls congregate And the snakes sleep, when the trucks hit the spacers in the overpass And the storm drains cough up dust and cigarette filters purge like frogs at the side of the road Back there, down the gravel lane, down the dirt road Down some dust on the grass, past the pecan tree to the shadow With some bricks around it Back there, late at night, back there in the dark Back there in the dust, back there The dog burst into flame Anyhow, time went by, anyhow snap crackers and stone soup Walking on cornflakes and stopping blocks Anyhow, she went back to where the dog blew up She tried her luck, she went back, maybe she could paint the porch Maybe she could fix the roof, maybe she could build a roof She told him "you can't smoke cigars, though, I'm too damn frail" And he said "I won't" Then he lit a cigarette and dropped his hat He said, "It's OK, I have a cat"
