Ev'rybody Wants To be A Cat
ev'rybody
wants to be a cat
because a cat's the only one
who knows where it's at
ev'rybody pickin' up on the feline beat
'cause ev'rything else is obsolete
Beware of a square
when he offers to share
his milk to sip
If it hasn't been tried
I suggest you provide
your own catnip
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
But still a cat's the only cat who know how to swing
A purr between two furry friends may be old hat
But Ev'rybody wants to be a cat
Come on , Scat Cat turn me on
I'll take my horn and my best tone
then blow a little soul into the tune
let's take it to another key
Modulate, then wait for me
I'll take a few ad libs and pretty soon
the other cats will commence the tune
