Night shift grill sings a greasy tune
Regulars crack jokes short and loud
Greenhouse glows where the glass is gone
Calico stalks on the cracked glass proud
Steam rises from the short order grill
Dawn threatens at the window's edge
Cat's eyes flash bright and perfectly still
She owns the break on the broken ledge
Calico queen on a throne of glass
Watching the night turn to dawn at last
Cracked panes shine like a jagged crown
She rules the greenhouse won't back down
Fry cook flips with a wrist so quick
Hash browns crisp on the flat top steel
Greenhouse cat makes the shadows stick
Paws on the fracture cold and real
Steam rises from the short order grill
Dawn threatens at the window's edge
Cat's eyes flash bright and perfectly still
She owns the break on the broken ledge
Calico queen on a throne of glass
Watching the night turn to dawn at last
Cracked panes shine like a jagged crown
She rules the greenhouse won't back down
Black coffee pours in a steady stream
Neon dies as the morning creeps
Calico blinks in the morning beam
Glass holds the light like a fractured scheme
No collar tags no warm kitchen floor
Just shards of sun on a fur coat torn
She guards the green behind the cracked door
A stray queen born when the night is worn
Calico queen on a throne of glass
Watching the night turn to dawn at last
Cracked panes shine like a jagged crown
She rules the greenhouse won't back down
Shift ends slow with a heavy sigh
Apron hangs on the rusted hook
Calico stays where the light breaks high
Greenhouse glass holds the morning look
Calico queen on a throne of glass
Watching the night turn to dawn at last
Cracked panes shine like a jagged crown
She rules the greenhouse won't back down
Calico watches the day begins
Queen of the cracked glass she always wins
