You know how to hold a room
You talk like a (politician)
All eyes are locked on you
Boy you got no
Competition

I grab hold of the microphone
Pretend that I don't see you
Nothing's gonna shake my tone
But it's hard to keep it
Even

Better warn you that
I'm not like those cats
Who don't dare scratch back

I'm a catch 22 baby

Suit and tie
Charm your way backstage
I know you're smitten
I won't bite but I won't behave
I'm not some
Clueless kitten

I don't trust
Your honest face
But I like the contradiction
I've got nine lives to waste
But I'm not in
To Superstition

Better warn you that
I'm not like those cats
Who don't dare scratch back

I'm a catch 22 baby
