Me and my friend the cat Into the night we sat We were sitting at speeds Known only to few Incredible distance we travelled us to If only you'd been there You'd know what I mean If only you'd been there If only you'd seen For the Ides of March were upon us then And it's been a year since I didn't know when Me and my friend the cat Well we talked about this, about that We were talking in circles You would never have guessed That this was the target And that was the quest If only you'd been there You'd know what I mean If only you'd been there If only you'd seen February is over and time marches on Yesterday, Yesteryear got up and gone Me and my friend the cat Well the two of us chewed the fat We were chewing together The blubber was bit It gagged in our throats Out foamed a fit If only you'd been there You'd know what I mean If only you'd been there If only you'd seen Tomorrow was St Patrick's Day I'm a layman now, I don't have to pray
