Datte Neko Dakara (Well, it's 'cause I'm a cat)

Text

The morning of a sunny and clear Sunday
I appreciate your efforts at work every day
You’re still sleeping in your bed

I cried inside the cardboard box
And you picked me up and stroked my head
With your gentle smile

Ah, why can we not tell each other anything
You’re just smiling
Well, it’s ‘cause I’m a cat

I’m quite fickle but
I want to stay loving you forever
Hey, care about me more
I'm getting impatient, I want to behave like a spoiled child
Please, god, someday make me his sweetheart

You come home late, and have dinner from the convenience store
I’ll make you something good today
Just my small little desire

Ah, why can’t I do anything
I’m just watching over you
Well, it’s ‘cause I’m a cat

I’m quite fickle but
I’m going to love you forever
Hey, hug me tight
I'm getting impatient, I want to behave like a spoiled child
Please, god, someday make me his sweetheart

I know nothing about you
Quietly tell only me
about the continuation of your dream

I’m quite fickle but
I want to stay loving you forever
Hey, care about me more
I'm getting impatient, I want to behave like a spoiled child
Please, god, someday make me his sweetheart
