[Verse 1]
I lived in your shadow
I drove your car
You thaught I belonged in your four walls
I was never your bunny
I was never your pet

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When you threw me out the window
I landed on my feet
Yeah, you threw me out the window
Like a, like a, like a cat

[Chorus]
Hey mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me

[Post-Chorus]
Like a, like a
[Purring]

[Verse 2]
You thought I'd be purring
Curled up by your fire
Don't want to be kept for your desire
You said I should be happy
But it only ,made me sad
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And when you could never tame me
That made you mad
No you could never tame me
Like a, like a , like a cat

[Chorus]
Hey mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me

[Bridge]
You rescued me, I didn't wanna be saved
I got tired of your mission
Every positon, woah-oh

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When you threw me out the window
I landed on my feet
Yeah, you threw me out the window
Like a, like a, like a cat

[Chorus]
Hey mister, you can never own me
I only let you hold me like a cat
And mister, you can never know me
I only let you stroke me like a cat
Hey mister, you can never know me
I only let you hold me
[Outro]
No, you never can own me
Like a cat
No, you never can own me
Like a hat
No, you never can own me
Like a cat
