Zen Within Lyrics

Time and time again

I say I see right through you

Uphill climb you say when

I tell you I'm no fool

Going through this groundhog day

You always saying to me

Stay hound dog stay

Throw me a bone or leave me alone

Girl just go go go

Until tomorrow anyway

Stray cat go back where you been

I'm still searching for that zen within

Ascend transcend

Zen within

Throw your bombs

I'll find peace and calm

You can scratch

But I quit crawling

Hiss and howl

You won't hear me growl

Go on and bite but

I'm done brawling

In plain sight your tiger stripes

I'm staying out of that lion's den

On and on it goes

No way that we can keep up

Almost gone in the throes

Don't waste those moves on me

Been down that back alley before

Playing hide and seek

No thanks no encore

All on your terms only confirms

I say no no no

Here comes comeuppance any day

Stray cat go back where you been

I'm still searching for that zen within

Ascend transcend

Zen within

Had nine lives

Teeth like carving knives

Met your match

And so you tantrum

Body and soul

I'm just trying to stay whole

My mantra

Now an anthem

You smile I see panther's teeth

Cagey cougar in her playpen
