Tapes Of Old

Within the darkened mall
My eyes continue scouting
Sharp teeth and open maw
I look for that cat prowling
The only one like me
We fight when we cross paths
The feline from the reel will see
The Cartoon Dog's full wrath

Escaped from a world of animation
Embraced my cartoon realm had come to life
I'll strike that cat with no hesitation
I want to life a lifetime free of strife
Behold the power that I hold
It's a level that you cannot fathom
Brought now to life from tapes of old
Our cartoon world will make you numb

A fight of generations
It began long ago
A source without citation
No research ever shows
How our fight started
It's origins lost to time
Our battleground uncharted
No one can see our prime

Escaped from a world of animation
Embraced my cartoon realm had come to life
I'll strike that cat with no hesitation
I want to life a lifetime free of strife
Behold the power that I hold
It's a level that you cannot fathom
Brought now to life from tapes of old
Our cartoon world will make you numb

Our fight continues on and on
It keeps on going never done
I keep on thinking the cat is gone
But then it tells me run run run
It's a cycle I cannot escape
Chasing this cat forever and a day
I refuse to take this as my fate
Someday I will put down the stray

Escaped from a world of animation
Embraced my cartoon realm had come to life
I'll strike that cat with no hesitation
I want to life a lifetime free of strife
Behold the power that I hold
It's a level that you cannot fathom
Brought now to life from tapes of old
Our cartoon world will make you numb
