Cats movie - Mr. Mistoffelees lyrics
rate me<br>
You ought to ask Mr. Mistoffelees<br>
The original Conjuring Cat<br>
The greatest magicians have something to learn<br>
From Mr. Mistoffelees's conjuring turn <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Presto! <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And you'll all say:<br>
Oh! Well I never! Was there ever<br>
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees!<br>
<br>
Oh! Well I never! Was there ever<br>
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
He is quiet and small<br>
He is black<br>
From the ears to the tip of his tail<br>
He can creep through the tiniest crack<br>
He can walk on the narrowest rail <br>
<br>
<br>
He can pick any card from a pack<br>
He is equally cunning with dice<br>
He is always decieving you into believing<br>
That he's only hunting for mice <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
He can play any trick with a cork<br>
Or a spoon and a bit of fish paste<br>
If you look for a knife or a fork<br>
And you think it was merely misplaced <br>
<br>
<br>
You have seen it one moment, and then it is gone!<br>
But you find it next week lying out on the lawn! <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And we all say:<br>
Oh! Well I never! Was there ever<br>
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees!<br>
<br>
Oh! Well I never! Was there ever<br>
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
His manner is vague and aloof<br>
You would think there was nobody shyer<br>
But his voice has been heard on the roof<br>
When he was curled up by the fire <br>
<br>
<br>
And he's sometimes been heard by the fire<br>
When he was about on the roof<br>
(At least we all heard that somebody purred)<br>
Which is uncontestable proof <br>
<br>
<br>
Of his singular magical powers<br>
And I've known the family to call<br>
Him in from the garden for hours<br>
When he was asleep in the hall <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And not long ago this phenomenal cat<br>
Produced seven kittens right out of a hat! <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And we all say:<br>
Oh! Well I never! Was there ever<br>
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees! <br>
<br>
Oh! Well I never! Was there ever<br>
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Ladies and gentlemen<br>
I give you the marvelous<br>
Magical Mr. Mistoffelees! <br>
<br>
<br>
Presto!<br>
<br>
