[Verse 1]
Everybody wants to be a cat,
Because a cat s the only cat who knows where it s at,
(Tell me!) Everybody s picking up on that feline beat,
Cause everything else is obso - lete!
[Verse 2]
A square with a horn makes you wish you weren t born,
Every time he plays, but with a square in the act,
You can set music back to the cave - man days,
Ze - de, dum, bo - zay!
[Verse 3]
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 every - body wants to be a cat!
[Verse 4]
A square with a horn makes you wish you weren t born,
Every time he plays, (Oh, a - rinky, tinky - tinky!)
But with a square in the act,
You can set music back to the cave - man days!
(Oh, a - rinky, tinky - tinky!)
[Verse 5]
Yes---, everybody wants to be a cat,
Because a cat s the only cat who knows where it s at,
When playing jazz you always has a welcome mat,
Cause every - body digs a swing - ing cat!
[Two bar drum break]
