Mr. Tabby

Serenity Taylor 2009 (TX city)

Lyric
Mr. Tabby,
he was always so happy
he even smiled while he was napping,

But now he's buried far below,
his body was found covered in snow
a story his town will always know.

Because Mr. Tabby,
his bones are cracking,
his joints are snapping,
now he's not happy.
