If I die tonight.
(originally done by too phat)
*Dedicated to the loving memory of Leila
August 2005-March 2nd, 2007*
(chorus)
If I die tonight
You know it'll be alright
Just smile for me
Reminisce the fond memories
If I die tonight
What would I do
On my last day
I know I'd wake early
In the morning for crack
Of dawn's last pray
Then probably go for breakfast
Like I used to do
Honey Frieskies PREMIUM
And a bowl of milk at ‘ruang-tamu’
In front of Abu.
And friends from way back
Neighborhood homies
Extended family
They only know me
As that same cat
With fleas on my head
Brown-white colors
Biting Ben’s PS2 cords,
Jumping off the Astro decoder,
Playing tricks on fools
Then I'd come back to the Belack’s crib
Curdling up a bit
Y'all know Belack’s room's messy
Though classy
Start ‘arrange’ my s**t
Line them up on the bed one by one
Start with the light green
And end them with the hard long
yellowish one,
Cover it with a Belack’s blanket
With the horrible smell of each dung
I think I know my homies
And who would clean which one
Get on Yoshie’s laptop
And holla' at everybody on his Frienster
list,
It's nearly noon
Gots to have lunch
With Shiro and the “family”
Then spend the last day
I don't know
Try do a million other things
Hoping somehow
Time will slow
I guess what
I'm trying to say is
Take everyday
Like it was your last
Work towards your dreams
Before you pass
And have a blast
While you at it
'Cause we don't know
When we go go
So make the best of it
Just keep it real to yourself
And to all people
If y'all lost somebody before
Remember there'll be a sequel …Chorus (2x)
Well if I die tonight
I wonder
Where I'll be tomorrow
Nobody cry please
Push away the sorrow
'Cause I ain't been
The best of cat
The best of pet
The best of Belack, Yoshie, Abu, Ben
And Peyhoon's last mate
The best of anything
Tell Shiro here's a last one
If I die tonight
Would I be forgiven
By Abu coz I steal his “ikan-bilis”
When I was livin'?
Those who I hurt their hearts
Took advantage of Yoshie
And even lied to Ben
Hug you all one last time
For forgiveness
Yeah I would like to
If I die tonight
Would Belack feel the loss?
Tomorrow would Shiro
call me for my breast milk
then suddenly... pause?
If I die tonight
I wonder who would get
To keep my “s**tting-spot”
Friskies, even my resting
place under Ben’s RAV4 too
Go to Abu’s balcony
”Meow-ing” every-cat from A to Z
Tell 'em this ain't Leila
She passed away last night
And pray she rest in peace
If I die tonight
Would you think of my cage
When you see blue
Wanted to clean it up this morning
But then I never knew
If I die tonight
What would happen to Shiro?
How long would it take
Before he kissed another mom?...
God damn...
When following Ben, Abu, Yoshi n Belack
to food joints
Would he still get
The same piece of chicken like I always do?
Things I wish I knew...Chorus 2X
A cute lil' thing
To many eyes
To us you were simply
A beautiful cat
We tell no lies
We went from
Picking up at “mamak stall”
To pals real tight
Rendezvous up while watching American
Chopper and
game between MU and Liverpool all night
Abu used to step on ur foot
And Ben nearly “roll” u with his jeep
Yoshie slammin' the door n nearly bang
ur head
And Belack almost spin u inside the
washing machine...
Remember after u gave birth to the three
kittens
You ran away, and became sick,
We rush u to the Vet at Equine Park
To see you get better even if it
cost us RM 180.
The last time
We met was '28 February
You feelin' upset at the Vet over...
something
We can't remember...
We never apologized
Till February 2nd 2007
When we heard you passed away
When we are deep in our sleep
Your loss taught us
Not to take our pets for granted
Small fever
Gotta rush them to the vet real quick
Death you never plan it
You're sorely missed down here Leila
Rest in peace
This too shall pass
But our true friendship will never cease..
Love..
Chorus (till end)
