about

About the day my cat coughed up a hairball and looked he was dancing.

lyrics

Mokey’s doing the Hairball Shimmy
Doing the Hairball Shimmy all around

Meander along till the feeling comes on
Stealing the rhythm and seething the song
Shrug your shoulders, stick out your tongue
Cough the hairball up with your lungs
And say…

Step out from
Behind the velvet curtain. You’re on
Jive with the spasms as they come along
Shrug your shoulders, stick out your tongue
Cough the hairball up with your lungs
And say…

Mokey’s doing the Hairball Shimmy
Staring me in the eyes all the while
He’s doing the Hairball Shimmy
Carry the hairball up and out in style

If you can
Embrace the demons, you’ll set them free
Clean out your closet. Scream and shout in…
Shrug your shoulders, stick out your tongue
Cough the hairball up with your lungs
And say…
