The joke in my part of the world used to be “a black cat in a coal cellar at midnight”. That this is also a cat makes me think that the artist might be familiar with that idiom.
Mine was “darker than a black cat in a coal mine at night” but I think it’s just easier for hicks with an accent to say. Far less racist than the other ways they would say “dark”.
Haha yeah sorry… I spent to much time in some backwater places in the south and Midwest parts of America and heard it a whole lot.
Heard it used for other things too… But one use stood out above the rest in my memories.

Oof. I’d never even thought about it in terms of race, but now you mention it, I have to wonder if I ever heard it in that context.
… and, not that I remember, probably have. sigh
