Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat Lyrics - Thurl Ravenscroft

Everybody wants to be a cat, 

because the cat's the only cat 

who knows where it's at 

Everybody's pickin up on that feline beat, 

Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat, 

'cause everything else is obsolete. 

Now a square with a horn, 

can make you wish you weren't born, 

ever'time he plays; 

and with a square in the act, 

he can set music back 

to the caveman days. 

I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing, 

but a cat's the only cat 

who knows how to swing. 

Who wants to dig 

a long-haired gig 

or stuff like that? 

When everybody wants to be a cat. 

A square with that horn, 

makes you wish you weren't born, 

ever'time he plays; 

and with a square in the act, 

he's gonna set this music back 

to the Stone Age days. 

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 swingin' cat. 

Everybody digs a swingin' cat.
