Slow Gherkin Roger Lyrics

My darling Roger,
I'd give my life away.
Don't know what to do with
all these feelings in my heart
I'm sick with fear about the world's decay
and my complexion.
Can't shake this burden
made of flesh, blood and bone
My mind and body aren't on speaking terms
I've got to make a connection.
But it's not so bad
No, it's not so bad at all
How could a world with cats like you be otherwise?
We can lie in bed all day
We can stretch out in the sun
There are many who
I'll call my darling
But Roger, Roger
you're the only one.
When the day is through
you press your forehead close to mine
So much to do, it's true, but for you
I would soon make time
And in my darkest hour
your black coat brings me peace
It's a little sappy but
this coyness, Roger, were no crime.
Don't know what to do with
all these feelings in my heart
It takes a true friend to
put it all back into perspective
Can't shake this constant joy
that dominates my life
My aim is false sometimes
but your gentle paw always corrects it
