Brian,
Cats are playing an increasingly important role in creative strategy. So I wanted to show that I am as comfortable writing cat copy, as I am human copy.
I wrote a cat-themed Christmas song last year to share with a few close friends. The lyrics for “Christmas Cat (Mewtide Melody)” were inspired by my friend Rumi’s cats, Midwestern winters and the simple joy of spending an afternoon in the embrace of the one you love, whether cat or human.

Thanks for listening!
“Christmas Cat (Mewtide Melody)” – Written and performed by Mayowa Tomori
Lyrics:
[Verse] Darling, don’t you know it’s cold? It’s awful and snowy outside. Why don’t you stay in bed instead babe, and warm up by my side? [Prechorus] I am your Christmas cat,
you are my Yuletime treat.
I’ve missed your mistletoes
and your mistlefeet [Chorus] ‘Cause it’s Christmas time. This is our yuletime. ‘Cause it’s Christmas time. This is our yuletime. [Verse] Don’t come knocking if you see this sled rocking on the roof, I’m probably dancing, petting yuletime kittens with you, [Prechorus] ‘Cause I am your Christmas cat, You are my Yuletime treat. I’ve missed your mistletoes and your mistlefeet [Chorus] ‘cause it’s Christmas time, This is our yuletime. ‘Cause it’s Christmas time, This is our yuletime. ‘Cause It’s kitten time, This is our mewtide. ‘Cause It’s kitten time, This is our mewtide [Bridge] Paw in paw, eye to eye nose to nose meowth to mouwth [Prechorus] [Chorus]
