Jasper Knows

Verse 1

Yellow eyes

Narrowed down like blades of grass

You sit high

On the dusty shelf above the glass

Judging

Watching

Waiting

Heavy paws on the edge of the wooden ledge

Tail flicking slow like a ticking clock

Jasper

Why you look at me that way

Chorus

He knows what I did

Yeah Jasper knows what I did

Judging from the shadows

Judging from the stairs

He knows what I did

Staring through my skin

Staring through my soul

Jasper knows

Post-Chorus

Jasper knows

Jasper knows

Jasper knows

Oh oh oh

Verse 2

Cold stare

Washing over every single mistake

Unfair

How much silence one animal can make

Slightest twitch

Folded ears and a twitching nose

You see the crumbs on my lucky shirt

The mess

The dirt

The shame

Burnt toast on a Tuesday morning

Stale water in the blue ceramic bowl

I feel small

I feel guilty for just breathing air

Cat king of the hallway

Ruling with a blink

Chorus

He knows what I did

Yeah Jasper knows what I did

Judging from the shadows

Judging from the stairs

He knows what I did

Staring through my skin

Staring through my soul

Jasper knows

Post-Chorus

Jasper knows

Jasper knows

Jasper knows

Oh oh oh

Bridge

I try to pet the fur

I try to hear the purr

I try to make it right

But you just turn away

Turning to the wall

Turning to the dark

Hard look

Hard life

Jasper is the judge and the jury too

Chorus

He knows what I did

Yeah Jasper knows what I did

Judging from the shadows

Judging from the stairs

He knows what I did

Staring through my skin

Staring through my soul

Jasper knows

Outro

Stop looking

Please stop looking

Yellow eyes in the hall

Goodnight Jasper

Goodnight judge

Jasper knows

Jasper knows

Jasper knows
