Lyrics

If you're caught out in the rain

“Cat Food” is a criticism of commercialism. The lyrics, sung in a rap-like manner by Greg Lake, were written by the band’s lyricist, Peter Sinfield. He writes in a 1971 newsletter: “Cat Food” needs little explanation, but I personally don’t eat much white flour, white bread or white sugar these days." White flour, white bread, and white sugar are all processed foods, more of which are described in the lyrics. King Crimson originally released Cat Food written by Robert Fripp and Pete Sinfield.
