I'm Nobody's Mama (from episode 39)<br />
Music by Deanna Oliver. <br />
Rita : I'm nobody's mama<br />
Got no family<br />
I'm a career cat<br />
And my career is all about me.<br />
No one can tie me down<br />
I'm going places<br />
Straighten up<br />
Don't make those silly sad faces<br />
It's rude.<br />
Kttns: Mew?<br />
Rita : All right, I'll get food.<br />
(spoken) But that's it! After that, you're on your own.<br />
<br />
Rita : I'm too independent<br />
They're so small<br />
How can I care for them?<br />
Do I care at all?<br />
I could never stand "Help me, Mama; Feed me, Mama<br />
Need me, Mama; Don't leave me, Mama."<br />
I'd never tolerate that.<br />
On the other hand, "Oh, my Mama; I love you, Mama<br />
I will never leave you, Mama."<br />
No! You've got the wrong cat!<br />
<br />
Rita : And did I mention<br />
They'll want too much attention<br />
I'll worry about 'em each day, every minute<br />
I gotta tell you my head isn't in it.<br />
I won't let my heart talk<br />
'Cause it's ruled by my biological clock<br />
Which is ticking away.<br />
No way!<br />
I mean what I say!<br />
I'm a single cat stray!<br />
I'm nobody's mama!<br />
