Shadow Paw (ニャン忍者)

Moonlight on the mountain snow

Silent paws where the cold winds blow

From the pines a whisper flows…

“Nyan… the ninja rise.”

⸻

Verse 1

High in the peaks of old Edo nights

Lanterns glow, but we stay out of sight

Claws like stars, eyes burning bright

Guarding villages till morning light

Down by the harbor pirate rats creep

Stealing rice while the townfolk sleep

But shadows move along the beams

Silent hunters in moonlit dreams

⸻

Pre-Chorus

Step by step through the cedar trees

Hear the wind say “Nin-ja Nya!”

Steel like lightning in the breeze

We strike fast then disappear

⸻

Chorus (catchy pop hook)

Shadow paws in the midnight sky

Ninja cats and we never die

From the mountains we descend tonight

To chase those pirate rats away

Claws flash bright in the lantern glow

Hear the village bells below

Edo nights where the legends play

Ninja cats save the day — Nya!

⸻

Verse 2

Black silk masks and tails held high

Leaping rooftops as we pass by

Ancient code, the feline way

Protect the peace of old Edo Bay

Rats with sails on their stolen ships

Whisper plans with greedy lips

But they tremble when the shadows fall

When the ninja cats make their call

⸻

Dance Break / Rap style

Step — leap — vanish in the mist

Whiskers sharp like a silver twist

Climb the shrine gate, flip the wall

Pirate rats better run or fall

Night wind whispers “Nyan-nyan-go!”

Strike like thunder, silent snow

Guardians of the mountain side

Ninja pride we cannot hide

⸻

Final Chorus (big idol ending)

Shadow paws in the moonlight glow

From the peaks to Edo below

When the pirate rats appear

Ninja cats are always near

Hear the drums and the temple bells

Ancient story the night still tells

From the mountains far away

Ninja cats save the day — Nya!

⸻

Outro

In the mountains where the cherry blossoms fall…

If you listen close at night…

You might hear soft paws on the wind.
