  • 作曲 : T.S. Eliot & Andrew Lloyd Webber
    You've heard of several kinds of cat
    And my opinion now is that
    You should need to interpreter to understand our character
    You've learned enough to take the view
    That cats are very much like you
    You've seen us both at work and games
    And learnt about our proper names
    Our habits and our habitat
    But how would you ad - dress a cat
    So first, your memory I'll jog
    And say: A cat is not a dog
    So first, your memory I'll jog
    And say: A cat is not a dog
    With cats, some say, one rule is true
    Don't speak 'till spoken to
    Myself I do not hold with that
    I say, you should ad - dress a cat
    But always bear in mind that he resents familiarity
    You bow, and taking off your hat, ad - dress him in this form "O Cat"!
    Before a cat will condescend
    To treat you as a trusted friend
    Some little token of esteem is needed, like a dish of cream
    And you might now and then supply
    Some caviar or Strassburg pie
    Some potted grouse or salmon paste
    He's sure to have his personal taste
    And so in time you reach your aim
    And call him by his name
    A cat's entitled to expect
    These evidences of respect
    So this is this and that is that
    And there's how you ad - dress a cat
    A cat's entitled to expect these evidences of respect
    So this is this, and that is that
    And there's how you ad - dress a cat
