  • 作词 : Andrew Lloyd Webber/T.S. Elliot
    作曲 : Andrew Lloyd Webber/T.S. Elliot

    Gus is the Cat at the theatre door
    My name, as I ought to have told you before
    Is really Asparagus, but that's such a fuss to pronounce
    That they usually call me just Gus
    My coat's very shag, I'm thin as a rake
    And I suffer from palsy that makes my paw shake
    Yet I was in my youth quite the smartest of cats
    But no longer a terror to mice or to rats
    For I'm not the cat that I was in my prime
    Though my name was quite famous, they say in my time
    And whenever I join my friends at their club
    Which takes place at the back of the neighbouring pub
    I loves to regale them if someone else pays
    With anecdotes drawn from my palmiest days
    For I once was a star of the highest degree
    I have acted with Irving, I've acted with Tree
    And I like to relate my success on the halls
    When the gallery once gave me seven cat calls
    But my greatest creation, as I love to tell
    Was Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell
    Ahh, hahahahahah
    Then, if someone will give me a toothful of gin
    I will tell how I once played a part in East Lynne
    In a Shakespeare performance I once walked on pat
    When some actor suggested the need for a cat
    And I say now, these kittens, they do not get trained
    As they did in the days when Victoria reigned
    They do not get drilled in the regular troupe
    And they think it is smart just to jump through a hoop
    And I say as I scratch myself with my claws
    Well, the theatre is certainly not what it was
    These modern productions are all very well
    But there's nothing to equal from what I hear tell
    That moment of mystery when I made history
    As Firefrorefiddle, the Fiend of the Fell
