Pads, Paws and Claws
Feline Temptations and Drunk Desires: Pads, Paws, and Claws Unveiled
Lyrics
She`s a feline tormentor, not any vaudeville wife
She is a tormentor with feline characteristics, not a typical wife associated with vaudeville performances.
But with a drunk-town lament he leads her a miserable life
The man leads a miserable life in a town known for its heavy drinking, possibly due to his relationship with the woman.
But when he`s full of that beer-champagne
When he's intoxicated with beer and champagne,
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
She moves around stealthily, using her hands and claws like a cat.
And if he should wake up in some terrible dive
If he wakes up in a terrible place,
And he don`t know if he`s so-so
He's unsure of his condition,
But he`s so surprised he`s alive
But he's surprised to find himself alive.
"Come on little honey, let me under your hive"
He tries to be intimate with her.
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
She uses her feline-like actions again.
She pads, pads around the bedroom, practicing ways to flirt
She moves around the bedroom, practicing ways to be flirtatious.
He paws, pours another drink and anything in a skirt
He drinks more alcohol and shows interest in any woman.
Anything wearing a necklace
Specifically attracted to women wearing necklaces.
He thinks of claws scratching his back he`s
He thinks about potential consequences like scratches from claws.
Going out there he`s not coming back
He's going out recklessly and might not return.
She`s got spider-leg fingers, sharpened whenever he strays
She has fingers likened to spider legs, ready to cause harm if he strays.
And she carries a bird-purse, with all of her womanly ways
She carries a purse resembling a bird, symbolizing her femininity.
`Til he`s drinking hairspray, she knows that he never would dare
Until he's so intoxicated that he wouldn't dare do certain things.
She could be in pictures if she wasn't all covered in fur
She could have a glamorous life if not for being covered in fur, possibly symbolizing her animalistic behavior.
He`s coming home now and here`s the surprise
He's returning home, which surprises her.
You wouldn't believe the lies that he tries
He tells unbelievable lies to cover his actions.
She cut him down to her favorite size
She metaphorically diminishes him to a size she prefers or can control.
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
Again, she uses her feline-like actions.
She pads, paws, pads, paws and claws
Repeated action indicating her predatory and controlling nature.
