Track Insight / Lyrics

You wipe the grill at midnight slow Coffee steam rises soft and low Regulars laugh at your short jokes Tips pile up like cigarette smoke Neon sign flickers through the glass Another shift begins to pass You glance up at the iron stairs Calico moves without a care Patchwork fur in summer haze Dusk light sets the alleys ablaze She pauses on the rusted rail Green eyes catch the fading veil Fire escape calico queen Ruling rooftops unseen Summer night your velvet throne You make the city yours alone Fryer pops a greasy song You hum along where you belong Cat stretches on the metal grid No lease signed and nothing hid Regular Joe asks for pie You serve it with a knowing eye Fire escape calico queen Ruling rooftops unseen Summer night your velvet throne You make the city yours alone Midnight deepens kitchen quiets Only clatter of clean dishes She leaps down to the dumpster feast King of scraps from west to east Dawn creeps in through wire mesh Night shift ends with weary flesh Calico curls on warm hood vent Engine heat her complement You lock the door and breathe the air Two survivors sitting there Tomorrow night you'll watch her climb Same old rhythm same old time No words needed none required Silent bond by fire inspired Coffee cold and grill wiped clean Best partnership you've seen Fire escape calico queen Ruling rooftops unseen Summer night your velvet throne You make the city yours alone Fire escape calico queen Summer dusk and greasy grill Cat and cook both standing still
