Track Insight / Lyrics

Grease stains map my apron blue Espresso climbs the copper flute Regulars grin at dry one-liners Laughter rings on checkered tile City wakes in exhaust fumes Calico on Rue, you own the night Guarding terraces in pale moonlight Paris rooftops sleep below your paws Silent sentinel without a cause King of alleys, master of the climb I pace the tiles where lovers dined Tomato scent on midnight wind No bowl of cream, no soft cushion Just zinc and stars, my only kin Dawn paints the slate roofs gold again Calico on Rue, you own the night Guarding terraces in pale moonlight Paris rooftops sleep below your paws Silent sentinel without a cause King of alleys, master of the climb Coffee runs thin, dawn cracks the sky You blink slow, let the light slip by My shift ends, I wipe the steel grill clean You stay put, a statue, serene Night shift ghost in morning sheen Calico on Rue, you own the night Guarding terraces in pale moonlight Paris rooftops sleep below your paws Silent sentinel without a cause King of alleys, master of the climb Tourists snap, you don't even flinch King of alleys, inch by inch I toss a scrap of ham and cheese You eat slow, with royal ease Paris wakes to your calm menace Calico on Rue, you own the night Guarding terraces in pale moonlight Paris rooftops sleep below your paws Silent sentinel without a cause King of alleys, master of the climb Yeah, you own this Rue, calico Night shift over, cat remains Paris wakes to your domain
