Scratch, Scratch, Scratch Lyrics - Vic Chesnutt

scratch, scratch, scratch 

goes the cat on the carpet 

she stepped in the blue water bowl 

twitch, twitch, twitch goes my eyelid 

my tounge in a cavity hole 

I lost my passport one hairy night 

I think they found it in the bald-bulb light 

now I wait calmly in the holiday cold 

my love is lent out, tucked in a skinfold 

my love is lent out, tucked in a skinfold 

there goes my baby 

not really in the middle of the murder 

surely left of center of the swirl 

I bolster my conviction as a character reference 

with a sweetie-neatie drop of pearl

the crowd at the courthouse 

passed around the flu 

blew through steamy faces 

still in shock in the parking lot 

freezing, doing sunday suit paces 

then we were dismissed 

and I drove alone to a friend's 

then we were dismissed 

and I drove alone to a friend's
