Kitten Time

Kitten time, kitten time
How do you know when it's kitten time?
Me, I know by how much I've been crying
He is gone and that is good
But I still miss him as I should
Oh, feels like kitten time

Orange and white or black and brown
Stripes going sideways or up and down
Funnel my tears into a measuring cup
When I saw what it bred I knew what was up
It's kitten time

Kitten time, kitten time
How do you know when it's kitten time?
Me, I know by how much I've been crying
He had to go, he told him so
Where he's going, I don't know
But oh, feels like kitten time

Tortoiseshell or Siamese
Try as I might, I did not please
Still, I wish him well
And I don't regret our time
Oh, here comes kitten time

Kitten time, kitten time
How do you know when it's kitten time?
Me, I know by how much I've been crying
And it's plain to see that it is kitten time
