Lyrics

Chorus

Whiskers on my pillow in the morning light

Paws across my forehead what a wild night

Whiskers on my pillow tangled in my hair

Suddenly the world feels light and fair

Verse 1

Woke up sideways half past nine

Something fuzzy crossed the line

Tiny claws and a motor sound

Blanket mountain tumbling down

My head was stuck in a messy nest

A furry friend upon my chest

He batted at my sleepy strands

Like little silken rubber bands

Chorus

Whiskers on my pillow in the morning light

Paws across my forehead what a wild night

Whiskers on my pillow tangled in my hair

Suddenly the world feels light and fair

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Tangled up with you

Oh-oh oh-oh

What a cat can do

Verse 2

Brushed it out and walked downtown

Interview smile without a frown

They said my confidence was rare

And I owe it all to messy hair

The recruiter laughed and shook my hand

Said I was exactly what they planned

A cat nap changed my whole career

The best alarm clock of the year

Chorus

Whiskers on my pillow in the morning light

Paws across my forehead what a wild night

Whiskers on my pillow tangled in my hair

Suddenly the world feels light and fair

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Tangled up with you

Oh-oh oh-oh

What a cat can do

Bridge

Purr purr purr

He fixed my life in a single leap

Purr purr purr

Now the good jobs come in a heap

Chorus

Whiskers on my pillow in the morning light

Paws across my forehead what a wild night

Whiskers on my pillow tangled in my hair

Suddenly the world feels light and fair

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Tangled up with you

Oh-oh oh-oh

What a cat can do
