[Verse]
In the realm of shadows
There roams a white feline
Marie
The graceful
Claws sharp as a porcupine
Her eyes
Like emeralds
Piercing through the night
Bounding through darkness with a strawberry delight
[Verse]
She prowls in silence
A symphony of death
Her fur as soft as silk
Hiding her wickedness
No prey escapes her grip
She's a hunter supreme
Devouring her victims like a sinister dream
[Chorus]
Marie
The white cat
Queen of the night
With a taste for strawberries
She'll scratch and she'll bite
Through the symphony of chaos
She reigns supreme
Marie
The white cat
A devil in a dream

To gardens of glory, where bird songs are played
He's a beast in the shadows, till birds take to wind
And leave him to ponder what might have been
[Guitar riff heavy with Egyptian scales]
With every misstep (misstep)
He lands with a thud
A tangle of
Tutmés, the cat, a pharaoh so fat
In Sara's kingdom, on plush carpets he sprawls
Pyramid dreams, with bird-catching schemes
Through the neighbours’ halls, he silently crawls
[Guitar with Egyptian scales]
Chasing feathers, like sands through time
Though birds just see him and chirp in their rhyme
Oh mighty Tutmés, the cat with no shame
In Sara's dominion, he reigns, plump and tame
Through polished sarcophagi, his paws find their way
To exotic gardens where feathered pray prey
[Guitar riff with Egyptian scales]
He prowls with intent, his eyes on the prize
But the sparrows just mock him with their tweets and their cries
Hear the clink of his tags (his tags)
With a jingle, prowling on, his courage he brags
Metallic whispers under the golden sun’s glare
Tutmés, the hunter, but birds hardly care
He struts through the gates, a sight to behold
Not knowing he's the joke, to the winged and the bold
Beneath the Nile moon (the moon)
Tutmés yawns wide, his courage assumed
A feline pharaoh, with appetite vast
In the night’s cool embrace, he forgets his past
Whispers of legends, in every proud step
Through the alleys he roams, a shadow adept
Ancient whispers in the air (the air)
Tutmés, he leaps, but lands in a chair
Lazily lounging, a sphinx without care
In Sara's realm, he's content with his lair
[Heavy guitar riff with Egyptian scales]
His pride as grand as the pyramids tall
But clumsy paws turn his hunt to a sprawl

Royal Pastry & Tapestry

Chihiro, with fur so lush and fine,
Curls 'round her feet, their worlds entwine.
[Verse 1]
Fair Sara, of the silken gown,
In chambers graced with ancient tome,
Her feline, Chihiro, roams the brown,
Whilst she in blacks and reds does roam.
Fair Sara, of the silken gown,
In chambers graced with ancient tome,
Her feline, Chihiro, roams the brown,
Whilst she in blacks and reds does roam.
Her love for Egypt's golden past,
The strawberries' sweet, summer delight,
Brushing rouge upon a cheek so fair,
'Midst alabaster, skin so bright.
The pyramids within her heart,
Each purring note, Chihiro imparts.
[Verse 2]
In Sara's grasp, a pastry sweet,
From oven's warmth to royal treat.
Her chamber walls adorned with thread,
Finest lace, in patterns spread.
Chihiro's eyes like jade alight,
Reflect the moon's soft, silvery light.
Elixir sips from cups of old,
While tales of pharaohs brave and bold,

Tutmés Idle Reverie
02:46
|
|
||
|
With eyes like Horus', sharp and keen,
He watches over his serene demesne.
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, whispering winds carry his legacy,
Through the stories that the ancients say,
A mighty heart beneath his jolly spree,
In playful jest, he spends his day.
Then spake Tutmés, plump and grand:
'Midst Sara's parents' land,
I long not for the wild mouse chase,
But birds I watch, in grace.
And each day I stroll around
Seek dreams without a fray,
In Hathor's warmth, I find my peace,
Amongst papyrus reeds and palms,
I lay in wait, a dreaming beast,
Enchanted by the birds' sweet psalms.
[Chorus]
Beneath Ra's eye, I may be slow,
But in my heart, a hunter lies,
To watch the sky (vast and grand)
Sara's whispers call me home
I may lay in golden sands
Yet through lush gardens, I roam
Pharaohs pass and pyramids rise
Time's a river where I drift
Here comes Tutmés, sleek and round:
Through neighbor's yards, he does not bound.
He lays to watch the sparrows fly,
Dreams of a feast in his feline eye.
[Verse 2]
Yet in his heart, no cruel desire,
Just curiosity, that endless fire.

Midnight Snacks

Before the escapade (hatchin' plans)
They laugh and scheme with paws for hands
Eyes fixed on the prize, as the night expands
Their spirits high (sneaky pair)
Anticipation fills the air
The kitchen calls, they're almost there
In the spotlight (fancy lights)
Sweet Marie with bangs so fair
Brown hair swingin' to the beat
Chihiro waits (waits and waits)
For the midnight (midnight snack)
Sneakin' treats without a peep
In the moonlight (soft moonbeams)
Graceful rhythm, toes tap light
Hip cats purrin', jazz flows free
Marie laughs (laughs and spins)
With Chihiro (snack thief king)
In a twirl of bangs and glee
In the kitchen (clinking spoons)
Chihiro's eyeing the fridge's glow
Teeth a' chatterin' with delight
Marie joins in (stealing cheese)
The silent caper, a playful heist
Fridge light fadin' (Hush! They might)
In the moonbeam ballet (twirling feet)
Two shadows glide in evening's room
Fridge door creaks, what's the treat tonight?
Chihiro's whiskers twitch (sniff, sniff, sniff)
Marie giggles (hiding sweets)
A shindig sparked by fridge's light

Marie the Peacemaker
03:16
|
|
||
|
In Israel's heart (in the heart)
Marie the cat, paws white as peace, ah
With every meow, she’s calling cease, ah
In streets of old, she roams a sage, ah
Uniting lands, a feline mage, ah
Na na na, na na mezuzah
In ancient stones, she leaves her mark, ah
Whiskers twined with tales so stark, ah
She purrs the chords of King David's harp, ah
In her eyes, the horizon arcs, ah
Na na na, through the Olive's arch, ah
With paws on the Wall (on the Wall)
Oh, in Jerusalem's wind (Jerusalem's wind)
Marie's tale, a playful spin, oh
Fur of cream, with sun's embrace, oh
Leaps the walls, no creed, no race, oh
Na na na, ‘neath the crescent moon's glow, oh
She curls in laps, enemies no more, oh
Dancing shadows, the Dome's gold hue (gold hue)
Marie the brave, a fur-lined truce (fur-lined truce)
Crossing lines drawn in desert sands, ah
She's the peace plan with softest hands, ah
Na na na, where the olives stand, ah
Mystic tales wrapped in her tail, ah
Stray of the Negev (Negev's flame)
With her fur woven of myths, so ancient, so tame
By the hookah's smoke, she leaps, undaunted, untamed
A meow in the market, a whisper of names
Na na na, pawprints in the Samarian rain
Through the alleyways, a four-legged seer (four-legged seer)

Papyrus Dreams
03:49
|
|
||
|
Selling shades but the hues all fade, ah
Management blunders, my hopes they plunder, ah
Brushes and liners, sales decline, oh triste
Branded promise, now just dishonest, oh falla
Then she turns her gaze to ancient days
Papyrus calls, she finds her way
Echoes of Anubis, calling her name, oh fortune
From the cosmetic aisles to the Nile, transcending
Hieroglyphs whispering past glories so vast
In golden sands, she's found at last, serenity
From mascara's fall to the pharaohs' call, she's flying
Beneath Ra's grace, she's now embracing, truth unwinding
Veils of powders, mirrors reflect despair, ah
Corporate towers, crushed dreams in the air, dolente
Yet she finds her spirit free, beyond the sale
Ancient secrets call her name, a new tale
Now she reads the stars, not the customer's eyes
For wisdom in the sands, not the company's lies, crescendo
Oh the blush of tombs, not cheeks, she scry, glorioso
In the silence deep, her passion speaks, lustrous blithe
Arias of discovery, unfurl within her heart, so fervent
From market stalls to ancient walls, her new start
[Verse 3]
Stone and relic, secrets kept so long, divina
Her clever hands unfold the past, awaken splendor
From lipstick's guise to the sphinx's eyes, she cherishes
Each artifact tells a tale, she now relishes
In her heart, a treasure trove of histories, allegrissimo
She trades her gloss for the alabaster stone, magnifico
[Chorus]
Oh she's found her path, the ancient's wrath, she's soaring
Above the gilded lies, to the skies, she's roaring
Her name now etched in halls of fame, bravura
From beauty sales to historic trails, she's won her guerra
[Verse 4]
The desert winds, they call to her, 'Venite!'
Unearthing tombs where pharaohs slept, it's fate, sì
Her life's work now, not shades to browse, but treasures recondite
From market strife to eternal life, in history's pure light

Chihiro paws the path, leading through the aftermath
Of garden wild, where destiny would wait
[Pre-Chorus: Male Voice]
Beneath the willow trees, where the air carries melodies
A tune that sounds like whispered secrets of the East
The journey calls her name, nothing will remain the same
With her cat, they'll conquer every fearsome beast
[Verse 1: Male Voice]
In the heart of her quaint little nook, see it gleam
With a cup full of tea, and a cake, life's a dream
With her cat, Chihiro, by her side, full of glee
She's the girl who loves sweet harmony
[Chorus: All]
For the love of tea and cake, we'll take chances we will make
Through the threshold, off we go, to a world we barely know
In the bustling town, the bazaar comes alive (comes alive)
Aromas and laughter, here they thrive
Chihiro with whiskers, eyes like the moon
Following scents of blossoms that bloom
[Pre-Chorus: Female Voice]
Through the market's maze, with a fearless gaze
Pastry towers high, under azure skies
[Verse 2: Female Voice]
Forward she marches, whiskers in the wind
Facing the new with a confident grin
Laughing at challenges, they come and they go
Chihiro and her cat, a spectacular show
[Bridge: Male and Female Voice]
Onwards to grandeur, with spirits that soar
Through trials and tales never heard of before
[Verse 3: Male Voice]
Sara's steps are sure, adventure's sweet allure
With her cat, the world's a riddle to decode
Hear the kettle sing, a symphony for a queen
In every sip of tea, a new road unfolds
[Pre-Chorus: Female Voice]
In the heart of chaos, with courage we will trust
Chihiro at her heel, through the dust, they thrust
[Chorus: Male and Female Voice]
Sara and Chihiro on the quest of their lives
Seeking the thrill where the dragonfly dives
Nothing can stop them, not mountain nor gale
For the love of tea and cake, they'll prevail
[Verse 4: Male Voice]
With her cape and her hat, facing wild acrobat
Skies like silk, wonders stack, in their hearts, there's no lack

The (f)Art of Romance

He lifts his leg, a trumpet sound
She shakes her head but sticks around
[Pre-Chorus]
The room is still, then bursts with laughter
No fairy tale, but that’s what they’re after
'Cause when he toots, she’s not aloof
That’s her man, Filipe, the little fool
Oh, Sara with the smile so sweet
She's got her style, got Filipe
He's the king of gas, 'the little fool'
When the mood is right, he's breaking rules
[Chorus]
And the way she laughs
The way she laughs
Their love's a blast, it's slightly cruel
But in their eyes, it's just old-school
He rips one out, a giggle starts
She joins right in with burping arts
[Chorus]
And they just laugh
Oh, how they laugh
He pulls her close, the candles lit
The atmosphere's, just perfect fit
A burp slips out, they freeze then smile
With Sara's grin, all's worthwhile
[Verse 3]
She bats her eyes, wears her charm
Then Filipe, sounds the alarm
Sara rolls her eyes, says 'Let it ring'
Then suddenly, with a playful fling
Filipe toots, they're in a twist
In love's odd tune, they coexist
[Chorus]
Oh, they just laugh
Yeah, they really laugh
Sara sighs, and flips her hair
Filipe grins from his armchair
She leans in for a kiss so sweet
He belts a burp, oh ain't that neat?
[Pre-Chorus]
She finds it funny, ain't no tool
That's her Filipe, her lovable fool

Chihiro's Lament
03:49
|
|
||
|
Chihiro she sees, with a world-weary trace
A call, a call to embrace
The humble abode, where soft paw prints tread
In the stillness, Chihiro lifts her head
Sara’s kind shadow, a canvas so wide
With her colors, she paints the love she won't hide
Chihiro cries 'neath the moon's silver beam
Calling to Sara, a soft, plaintive theme
Hung'ring for more than a handful of dreams
A real, a real live girl
Madame Butterfly, paint shadows and lines
While your Chihiro for sustenance pines
Sara hears whispers, in the still of the night
Chihiro's meows, 'neath the pale starlight
In the silence, where dreams take their flight
A plea, a plea from the dark
Madame Butterfly, strokes her brush and her soul
As her Chihiro, yearns for a bowl
Sara’s heart stirs, by the window she stands
Pouring her love through her tender, skilled hands
Chihiro's cry, like an aria demands
A feast, a feast from above
Madame Butterfly, in the glow of the moon
Offers a morsel, to still the cat's tune
Veil of frost on the world outside
Chihiro's whispers carried on the tide
Longing for warmth, for a touch, for a meal
Her silent ballet, an unspoken appeal
Madame Butterfly, you hear her serene
Adrift in a world, so close yet unseen
Chihiro's eyes, like twin orbs in the gloom
Watching for Sara, to brighten her room
Tiny paws pacing, a space soft and small
Waiting for Sara, to answer her call
Madame Butterfly, strokes her brush and her soul
As her Chihiro, yearns for a bowl
Sara's breath mists on the glass, watching Chihiro plead
In quiet sorrow, a mere whisper, a need
The cat's silver song to her heart will lead
To feed, to feed her feline in deed
Madame Butterfly, draws lines with care
Chihiro, the velvet night, her humble lair

Sara's got her glam, oh so lovely
Eyes like the pyramids, history's her buddy
Chihiro on her lap, while she's sipping tea
Dressed in black, like an ancient queen
[Bridge]
Take her slice of cake with care
(She’s gonna) Adorn in dresses beyond compare
Prism of her soul, bright as Cleopatra
She paints her face, a modern beauty chapter
Chihiro purrs, in Sarah’s warm embrace
As she daydreams ‘bout Egyptian grace
[Verse 3]
Sara’s world is sweet, strawberries on her plate
Cookies, crumbs of joy, for which she can't wait
Sarah smiles at the mirror, liner wings take flight
Jeweled tales of her passion, black as the night
Halls of pharaohs whisper in her studious play
Adrift in history's pages, where she loves to stay
(Oh Sara) [Chorus]
Queen of her world, dressed in dreams of old
Sara's beauty reigns, in her realm so royal
Wearing midnight hues, in her daily toil
Her cat Chihiro, lies sleek and regal
Close to her queen, with love so legal
[Bridge]
Flavors sweet, like Sara's charm so fine
(Tasting) Pastries in the afternoon sunshine
Daily she spins, simple stories of lore
Decked out in velvet, it's history she'll explore
The Nile whispers secrets, in Sara's studious heart
Egypt's embrace, a canvas for her art
[Bridge]
Going back in time with every stroke
(She’s gonna) Stand before kings, as she dreams and woke
With every shimmer, every shade, she weaves her tale (weaves her tale)
Sara spins ‘round, in gowns, a timeless sail (timeless sail)
Chihiro by her side, through thick or thin (thick or thin)
Adventures in the mirror, where fantasies begin (fantasies begin)
[Verse 4]
In her palace of books, a princess crowned in jet (crowned in jet)
Delighting in the stories that history beget (history beget)
Sarah twirls in her chamber, amid scents so sweet (so sweet)
With Cleopatra's shadow, she's found her royal beat (royal beat)
Painting her world in a spectrum of black (spectrum of black)
With Chihiro her muse, there's nothing she'll lack (she'll lack)
[Twinkling interlude as Sarah gets ready]
(Oh Sara) [Chorus]
In her kingdom of wonders, where time stands still
When the stars align, and the night is ours (night is ours)
Sara paints her joy, in the midnight hours (midnight hours)
With a stroke of blush, and her royal flair (royal flair)
Chihiro purring as she braids her hair (braids her hair)
Dreaming of pyramids and sands so fair (sands so fair)
She’s the modern queen, with none to compare (none to compare)

He sniffs the breezes with wise old snout
Dreamin' of birdies he's got no clout
[Verse]
He's watchin' the world from his cozy bed
With the dreams of a hunter alive in his head
His purrs are a motor, soft and slow
In that gentle sunbeam's warmest glow
Everybody's nappin' but Tutmés on the prowl
Everybody's chattin' but he lets out a howl
There’s a bird on the wire over where the neighbors drowse
[Chorus]
Nobody warned old Tutmés of days like these
Nobody told that chubby cat of the capricious breeze
Nobody showed Tutmés the art of the chase
Peeking through fences, stealth just for show
In his own mind, he's the star of the row
Fantasies flutter, like the wings he espies
[Chorus]
Oh, Sara laughs when Tutmés tries to leap high
She knows that her tubby buddy, ain't got no sly
But oh, how he wishes to soar with the skies
And he purrs (loud purrs), with a half-closed eye
Tail's-a twitchin' as the birds all fly
But he's king of the couch where he lies down
[Verse]
There's a bustling world through the window pane
Sparrows and robins, each day the same
Tutmés imagines a grand surprise
But savvy wings evade feline guise
Tutmés may ponder, with every glance
That today's the day, he'll take that chance
[Chorus]
In Sara's yard, he's the king of dreams
Heavy paws and gourmet creams
Though he's ruled by naps and sunlit beams

Chihiro The Hero
03:39

|
In the shadow, Chihiro waits (Chihiro waits)
Silent whispers, beneath the sheets (stranger’s bait)
Oh his eyes, they shine and gleam
There's a mystery in his feline leap (Chihiro's leap)
With Sara and Filipe, he roams free (roams so free)
Trust is earned, a bond you see (bond you see)
When the doorbell rings, he takes to flight (Chihiro hides)
In his quiet world, away from sight (stranger fright)
But with trusty Sara by his side
Chihiro's heart opens wide, it opens wide
[Pre-Chorus]
In the corner there, with Filipe's shoes
He's a wild one, with nothing to lose
Chihiro's realm, the balcony stage (up so high)
Biting greens, in his playful rage (elephant's delight)
Sneaker laces, caught in a snag (Chihiro's game)
Bouncing off walls, his own parkour tag (flying feline)
[Chorus]
Chihiro, Chihiro, hearts you steal (hearts you steal)
In your world, everything's real (Chihiro's thrill)
Every footstep, a thundering beat (Chihiro's heart)
Through the hallway, he finds his fleet (speed of light)
Loyal Sara with a smile so sweet (she knows him well)
Filipe's laughter, the perfect meet (joyous yell)
[Pre-Chorus]
Up on high, where dreams take wing
Chihiro's dance, a majestic thing
Through the doorway, a shadow leaps (Chihiro flies)
With Sara's glance, his courage peeks (courage peeks)
Far and wide, his kingdom sprawls (Chihiro's reign)
In these four walls, a hero calls (calls so loud)
[Verse 3]
And when the city sleeps, his eyes aglow (eyes aglow)
He's the tiger of the night, soft and low (Chihiro roars)
