Why are we known as bad omens?
Black Cat by Angel Rose


Beware, beware the black cat at night

the only way he's seen is by the moonlight.

He gives most people quite a fright

just by being in their sight.

Black cat at night, black cat at night

why are there tears in your eyes?

He looks up, his ears drooped down

the once playful smile now a frown.

Dear human, tears are in my eyes because of what I've seen

my kind are mistreated for our black fur and eyes of green.

We're seen as a bad omen by most

just because of lore saying we're witches hosts.

Dear human, if only they could see

that misfortune isn't me.
