Walt Disney Records - Ev'rybody Wants to Be a Cat lyrics

[Skat Cat, spoken:] Well little lady, let me elucidate here (sung) Everybody wants to be a cat Because a cat's the only cat Who knows where it's at [Tom:] Tell me Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat 'Cause everything else is obsolete A square with a horn makes you wish you weren't born [Skat:] Ever'time he plays [Tom:] But with a square in the act You can set music back [Skat:] To the cave man days, cha cha ba dum bo day [Tom: ] I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing [Skat:] Still a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing [Ba**: ] Who wants to dig a long-haired gig or stuff like that? [Tom and Skat:] When everybody wants to be a cat A square with a horn makes you wish you weren't born Ever'time he plays; [Tom:] Oh a-rinky tinky tinky [Tom and Skat:] With a square in the act, you can set music back To the cave man days [Marie:] Oh a-rinky tinky tinky [Tom:] Yes [Marie, Tom & Skat] Everybody wants to be a cat Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at While playin' jazz you always has a welcome mat 'Cause everybody digs a swinging cat [Harp begins] [Duchess:] If you want to turn me on Play your horn, don't spare the tone And blow a little soul into the tune [Tom:] Let's take it to another key [Skat:] Modulate, and wait for me I'll take a few ad-libs and pretty soon [Tom:] The other cats will all commence Congregatin' on the fence Beneath the alley's only light [Duchess:] Where every note is out of sight [Jazz music begins again] [Skat & Crew:] Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat! (Hallelujah!) Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat! (I'm telling you!) Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat! (Yeah!) Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat! (Mmm) Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat! (Hallelujah!) Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to be a cat...
