lyrics

Look over there, it’s house panther
You see a shy guy, I see a romancer
If you’re willing to take a chance
You could make romance with a dancing panther
Do you want to take a chance
Moves sure to put you in a trance
You say you can, I say you can’t
Look in the eyes of a real house panther

Big cat, out on the prowl
Listen there, hear that growl
Hey there, don’t look now
Little kitty’s starting to meow

CHORUS

Tell me now, whatcha gonna do?
Gonna run, or try something new?
Break out your best moves
Show you’ve got something to prove

CHORUS

RAP BREAK:
Shout out to the night-life in the big city
Y'all greet the House Panther with a "here kitty kitty"
Coz the party is L-I-T A-F
And ya know that cat always comes correct
Whether you're a homebody or a club go-er
Once you get through that door it's over
And even if ya don't comprehend what's in store
Letter Seventeen gonna get you on the floor

And of course I don't know what the future might hold
And I don't know if I'll die before I get old
But like the man said, "fortune favours the bold"
And the party people know it, they don't have to be told
Can't deny the facts, not even a little
The cat's in the middle like hey diddle diddle
Don't be concerned with unnecessary chitchat
Just understand she's no ordinary housecat

Time for the here and now
Little kitty’s starting to meow
Listen there, hear that growl
Big cat, out on the prowl

CHORUS

Letter Seventeen Norcross

Whimsical indie pop from a one-man band. Except when other people help. Which is quite often. So it's not like a one-man band at all.
Oh. And there are songs about donkeys.
