about

Cody Weathers & The Men Your Mama Warned You About play rhythmic, slinky scat-rock. Pretty much everyone has a little crush on them, and "Catnip" is a song about that effect.

This song's called "Catnip." This is a song Cody wrote for you guys, for your feelings. Feelings you guys have. You know you have them; it's why you clicked play. And now that you know you've got these feelings --we know you've got them too, and let's just acknowledge that together and be grown-ups about it. Everyone has them. We see it all the time. Every gig, with the sheepish downward glances and the 25-foot perimeter. We know these signs. We're not dumb. And now that we're being mature grown-ups at last with the feelings out in the open, where feelings truly belong to begin with, not just locked in your eyes, glancing desperately, hoping we look, hoping we don't look, not quite sure what you're hoping. Look, we know what you're hoping. You know what you're hoping, too. Anyway, this song --"Catnip" it's called... is about the little crush you have on us... 2,3,4...

lyrics

Catnip
by Cody Weathers
It could be that Cupid is a fairy tale, like Martians or bottomless coffeepots. And I can remember when I came into town as the clumsiest clown you had seen. Maybe it's the first time, maybe it's the last time, but baby, the moment is ripe. CH: I'm your catnip. I'm an itching spell, and once you get me, gotta scratch me. It could be that romance is a dying art, and that broken hearts are the rule. But I can remember how we suffered apart and made do with the cards that we drew. Maybe it's the moonlight, maybe it just feels right, but baby, this arrow's for you. (CH) Baby loves to purr, baby loves to purr, baby likes the itch.
