Phil Harris Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat Lyrics

SCAT CAT:
Well little lady let me elucidate here
Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a cat's the only cat
Who knows where it's at

O'MALLEY:
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'Cause everything else is obsolete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

SCAT CAT:
Ever'time he plays

O'MALLEY:
But with a square in the act
You can set music back

SCAT CAT:
To the caveman days

O'MALLEY:
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing

SCAT CAT:
Still a cat's the only cat
Who knows how to swing

BILLY BOSS CAT:
Who wants to dig
A long-haired gig
Or stuff like that?

SCAT CAT & O'MALLEY:
When everybody wants to be a cat

A square with the horn
Makes you wish you weren't born
Ever'time he plays
And with a square in the act
You gonna can set music back
To the cave man days

BOTH & MARIE:
Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a cat's the only cat
Who knows where it's at
When playin' jazz you always has a welcome mat
'Cause everybody digs a swingin' cat

SCAT CAT & GANG:
Everybody, everybody
Everybody wants to be a cat
Hallelujah!
Everybody, everybody
Everybody wants to be a cat
Everybody, everybody
Everybody want to be a cat!
