Scratch Like A Cat - Spread Eagle

Back in the alleyways

With street trash I hideaway

Fuck with me you bet your life

I’ll cut through you like a switchblade knife

The golden rule under the street light sun

Is lookout for number one

Don’t think twice about what’s right

I sink my teeth and take a bite

Street school there ain’t no rules

When trouble calls your back’s against the wall

And they got you by the balls

You don’t wanna bleed you gotta fight 'em dirty

Before they bring you to your knees

You gotta scratch

Scratch like a cat

You gotta scratch

Scratch like a cat

Law dog come sniffin' around

Sniffin' around when the sun goes down

On my ass and without a doubt

I chew 'em up and I spit 'em out

It’s do or die in this paradise

War games we call street life

So don’t you cross my path

'Cause Til make sure you don’t come back

Street school there ain’t no rules

When trouble calls your back against the wall

And they got you by the balls

You don’t wanna bleed you gotta fight 'em dirty

Before they bring you to your knees

Chorus

And if I should die tomorrow

Don’t say a prayer for me

Pray for the lonely children

And hope they don’t turn out like me

Chorus (repeat)
