Schooltree - Cat Centipede

CAT CENTIPEDE   [narrator] Another day, the boredom, the malaise Sitting in traffic’s yellow haze The wind blows, the windshield Cracks under the weight If just for a moment, she hesitates.   In this cage, there’s no way she can take it Another day, another day She can't breathe, she can’t see, she can't feel How are we to know what’s real From our cages of steel?   [Suzi] I was walking the streets I was thinking that I was beat I was beat.   Then there was something I saw Maybe nothing at all Maybe a shadow on the wall.   Shadows  Shadows in light Shadows Shadows in light I've seen   Running on a hundred legs of speed – Cat centipede Living underneath our feet, Cat centipede.   This is something we made With our garbage and with our waste And with our hate.   So I followed it down Through the alleys, across town, Down to the drain  Where the garbage and the runoff meet the rain.   Shadows  Shadows in light Shadows Shadows in light I've seen.   Running on a hundred legs of speed, Cat centipede Living underneath our feet, Cat centipede.   What goes on beneath the surface We may never know Creatures coming up from below From below From below...
