Lyrics
Verse 1
I see a little pussy cat
Frozen on the stairs
Tail puffed up like a feather duster
Big round eyes that glare
Thunder rolls across the roof
Windows start to shake
You tiptoe down in your polka-dot socks
Feeling every quake
Chorus
Oh meow, oh meow
This storm, it really scares me
Boom crash, rumble now
Can someone stay and share with me?
Oh meow, oh meow
My heart is going “hurry, hurry”
Hold me close and tell me how
A rainy night can’t hurt me
Verse 2
Lightning paints the hallway walls
White and wild and bright
You dart behind the dusty shoe rack
Trying to hide from the night
Little claws on wooden steps
Tap a scaredy song
You whisper, “It’s okay, small friend
We’ll wait till it’s all gone”
Chorus
Oh meow, oh meow
This storm, it really scares me
Boom crash, rumble now
Can someone stay and share with me?
Oh meow, oh meow
My heart is going “hurry, hurry”
Hold me close and tell me how
A rainy night can’t hurt me
Bridge
Count it out
“One, two, three” (hey!)
Between the flash
And the sound we see
If it’s far
We both agree
It’s just the sky
Being loud as me
Chorus
Oh meow, oh meow
This storm, it really scares me
Boom crash, rumble now
But you’re right here beside me
Oh meow, oh meow
We’re shaking but we’re sturdy
Hold me close and tell me how
A rainy night can’t hurt me
