I don’t bother chasing mice around.
I wish I could be so carefree and wild.
Still I got cat class, and I got cat style…
Just an observation.
Just watch out for the shoes being thrown at you by a mean old man.
You get your dinner from a garbage can? Ick!
I love that song! Now it’s my earworm for the day!
This reminds me of a thread from a couple years ago in which the song lyrics were overanalyzed to death in that way we Dopers like to do:
I want a fish skeleton.
Maybe on a platter.

Kinda funny. I didn’t mention this thread at all. Wasn’t even thinking about it.
Guess what band my wife told Alexa to play last night. I have never heard her ask for the Stray Cats. Never.
I fronted a garage band that did this one more than a few times.
That means that I got cat class and I got cat style. Hey, I don’t bother chasin’ mice around. I sing the blues while the lady cats cry, “Hey, stray cat, you’re a real gone guy.”
Fun song. Thanks for reminding me of it.
I can see your spoons flying! @Spoons
Wow!
I liked their band. A guitar, a double bass and a very spare drum kit. That’s it.
I’ve got a stray cat in my neighborhood who occasionally hangs out on my porch. I call him Brian.
He also sometimes hangs out under the porch, which makes my dog quite cross.
Any idea why the dog is more cross about a cat under the porch than about a cat on the porch?
That was jtur88. 
:: golf clap ::
The cat only hangs out on the porch when the dog is inside.
Happy birthday @Chefguy !! 
Thanks! Entering my eighth decade.
No matter how warm the smile on the face of the sun, the cat still has her kittens under the porch.

I saw them Back in the Day and they put on a hell of a show. Twirling a double bass while slapping it, that must take some practice.
Thanks to this thread, I now have Stray Cat Strut embedded in my brain. Along with Hit The Road Jack, Runaway, and One More Cup of Coffee…
