Do you have songs, or ‘theme songs’ for your pets? Each of mine have several….

Seven: I really need a photo to accompany this. She has two theme songs. First, ‘Black Betty’ by Ram Jam. Instead of ‘Black Betty’, you sing ‘Bad Kitty.’

whoa, Bad Kitty (bam-A-lam)

yeah, Bad Kitty (bam-A-lam)

Bad Kitty had a child (bam-A-lam)

The damn thing gone wild (bam-A-lam)

She’s always ready (bam-A-lam)

She’s so rock steady (bam-A-lam)

whoa, Bad Kitty (bam-BA-lam)

Her other song is Talking Heads, ‘Psycho Killer.’ Obviously, ‘Psycho Killer’ becomes ‘Psycho Kitty’...

“Psycho Kitty,

Qu’est-ce que c’est?

fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better

Run run run run run run run away

Psycho Kitty,

Qu’est-ce que c’est?

fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa far better

Run run run run run run run away”

OH, holy shit! WE have so many! I should make and post MP3s of them all. They are hysterical.

Yzz, I love that you started this thread. Awesome.

I just wrote one set to Memories for Murray!

yay! i can’t wait to hear…

kali’s song is the pixies, caribou…

I live cement

I hate this street

Give dirt to me

I bite lament

This human form

Where I was born

I now repent

kali-poo

kali-pooo oh

kali-poooo

Repent

Re-pe-ent

Pearl’s is sorta inappropriate. I need to find her a better song. There’s a Babes In Toyland song called Pearl, and I sing just the beginning to her.

Little pearl she was this girl

Thoughts and notions in a whirl

but the rest of it is about heroin… so not such a good kitty song.

Fer Boris, there’s Devo – Gut Feeling. The music, not the lyrics. And then I sing “Mr. B” to him to the tune of “Mr. Lee” by the Bobettes…

One, two, three, look at Mr. B

Three, four, five, look at him jive

Mr. B, Mr. B

Oh, Mr. B

Mr. B, Mr. B

Oh, Mr. B

Mr. B

I met my sweetie

His name is Mr. B

I met my sweetie

His name is Mr. B

He’s the hansomest sweetie

That you ever did see

My heart is achin’ for you Mr. B

My heart is achin’ for you Mr. B

‘Cause I love you so

And I’ll never let you go

Oh yes – both of our kitties have theme songs. :)

Ain’t Too Proud To Beg by The Temptations.

I sing to him, then we dance.

Wow, I just had a flashback… I walked into the mailroom in my office to make copies, and Madonna’s song “Angel” was on the radio in there. I kind of got a lump in my throat, because when Dub was in the hospital last October and I went to visit him on my lunch break, I would sit there and sing to him – his own personalized songs, or stuff that was on the radio. I remember singing him that one in particular.

So yeah, I sing all sorts of stuff to the cats, as does my husband. Dub lets me dance with him, too. :)
