Lyrics

This song traces the saga of humans and cats, from ancient grain-guarding heroes to modern meme stars, proving that no matter the era, it’s always cats who rule the world.

So long ago we parted

Now our lives entwine

So many ways our paths diverged

Then coalesced through time

 

Oh, you descend from darkness

I descend from light

Our senses tuned to different worlds

Contrasting day and night

 

Oh, little hunter!

Sylvian spirit of the night

Oh, little hunter!

Oh, how our strengths combine

And now you and I unite through time

 

Deified, admired

Demonized, maligned

From pyramids to industry

You march with us through time

 

Oh, little hunter!

Sylvian spirit of the night

Oh, little hunter!

Oh, how our strengths combine

And now you and I unite through time

 

And it’s cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

Yeah, it's cats all the way down

 

Were our hearts your real target

When you first guarded the grain?

Now mousers change to furry friends

And nothing’s quite the same

 

Will you live on forever

Encoded on the web?

A meme machine that never stops

As culture flows and ebbs

 

Oh, little hunter!

Sylvian spirit of the night

Oh, little hunter!

Oh, how our strengths combine

And now you and I unite

And now you and I unite

And now you and I unite through time!

 

Oh, and it’s cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down

It's cats all the way down
