Third Cat wrote a very good song
About a man whose life is going wrong
There’s a list you can peruse
Of many kinds of booze
Variously flavorful and strong
Oh Third Cat wrote a very good song
Yes Third Cat wrote a very good song
But Mandibles’ song was better than Third Cat’s
No mean feat, you’ll agree if you heard that
The singer gathers strength
To travel ever-growing lengths
To reach the door of the one she aims her words at
Oh Mandibles’ song was better than Third Cat’s
And Third Cat wrote a very good song
But Faster Jackalope’s song was better than Mandibles’
Though if you had trouble picking, that’d be understandable
Here kisses come with knives
And cuddles can end lives
Morality is highly expandable
Oh Faster Jackalope’s song was better than Mandibles’
And Mandibles’ song was better than Third Cat’s
And Third Cat wrote a very good song
Oh Third Cat wrote a very good song
But Zoe Gray’s song was better than Faster Jackalope’s
Here’s an artist who has plainly mastered tragic tropes
You sit down to create
But all you feel is self-hate
We’ve all been there, and if you hear some bastard hasn’t, nope
Well Zoe Gray’s song was better than Faster Jackalope’s
And Faster Jackalope’s song was better than Mandibles’
And Mandibles’ song was better than Third Cat’s
And Third Cat wrote a very good song
Yes Zoe Gray’s song was better than Faster Jackalope’s
And Faster Jackalope’s song was better than Mandibles’
And Mandibles’ song was better than Third Cat’s
And Third Cat wrote a very good song
Yes Third Cat wrote a very good song
