Ev'rybody Wants to Ba a Cat
Ev'rybody wants to be a cat Because a cat's the only cat Who knows where it's at! Tell me Ev'rybody's pickin' up on that feline beat 'Cause ev'rything else is obsolete A square with a horn Makes you wish you weren't born Ev'ry time he plays But with a square in the act You can set music back To the caveman days (ad lib) I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing Still a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing! Who wants to dig a long-haired gig And stuff like that When ev'rybody wants to be a cat A square with that horn Makes you wish you weren't born Ev'ry time he plays oh a rinky tinky tinky With a square in the act You can set music back To the caveman days Oh a rinky tinky tinky Yes, ev'rybody wants to be a cat Because a cat's the only cat Who knows where it's at! When playing scat Who always has a welcome mat 'Cause ev'rybody digs a swinging cat Ev'rybody,ev'rybody, ev'rybody wants to be a cat (Repeat)
