The Rum Tum Tugger
Is a curious cat
If you offer me pheasant
I'd rather have grouse
If you put me in a house,
I would much prefer a flat
If you put me in a flat then
I only want a house
If you set me on a mouse then,
I only want a rat
If you set me on a rat then,
I'd rather chase a mouse
The Rum Tum Tugger
is a curious cat
And there isn't any call for me to
shout it
For he will do as he do do
And there's no doing anything about
The Rum Tum Tugger
is a terrible bore
When you let me in,
then i want to go out
I'm always on the wrong side of
every door
And as soon as I'm at home,
The I'd like to get about
I like to lie in the bureau drawer
But I make such a fuss if i can't
get out
The Rum Tum Tugger
is a curious cat
And there isn't any use for you
to doubt it
For he will do as he do do
And there's no doing anything about
The Rum Tum Tugger
is a curious beast
My disobliging ways are a
matter of habit
If you offer me fish then I
only want a feast
When there isn't any fish I
won't eat rabbit
If you offer me cream then I sniff
and sneer
But I only like what I find for myself
So you'll catch me in it right up to my ears
If you put it away on the ladder shelf
The Rum Tum Tugger Is artful
and knowing
The Rum Tum tugger doesn't care for
a cuddle
But I'll leap in your lap in the middle of you sweing
For there's nothing more I enjoy like
a horrible muddle!
The Rum Tum Tugger is a
Curious cat
The Rum Tum Tugger
doesn't care for a cuddle
The Rum Tum Tugger
is a curious cat
and there isn't any need for me to spout it
For he will do as he do do
And there's no doing anyhting about
