歌词

[00:07.54] Gus is the cat at the theatre door
[00:13.12] His name is l ought to have told you before
[00:18.58] ls really Asparagus
[00:21.81] but that's such a fuss to pronounce
[00:25.60] That we usually call him just Gus
[00:31.54] His coat's very shabby. He's thin as a rake
[00:37.10] And he suffers from palsy that makes his paw shake
[00:42.67] Yet he was in his youth, quite the smartest of cats
[00:48.40] But no longer a terror to mice or to rats
[00:55.50] For he isn't the cat that he was in his prime
[01:00.30] Though his name was quiet famous, he says in his time
[01:06.89] And when ever he joins his friends at their club
[01:12.80] Which takes place at the back of the neighboring pub
[01:17.73] He loves to regale them if someone else pays
[01:23.63] With anecdotes drawn from his palmist days
[01:28.74] For he once was a star of the highest degree
[01:33.80] He has acted with lrving
[01:36.80] he has acted with Tree
[01:40.16] And he likes to relate his success on the halls
[01:45.28] Where the gallery once gave him seven cat calls
[01:51.85] But his grandest creation as he loves to tell
[02:00.53] was Firefrofiddle, the fiend of the fell
[02:16.11] l have played in my time every possible part
[02:26.48] And l used to know seventy speeches by heart
[02:33.30] l'd extemporise back chat l knew how to gag
[02:40.94] And l knew how to let the cat out of the bag
[02:46.57] l knew how to act with my back and my tail
[02:53.15] With an hour of rehearsal l never could fail
[02:59.60] l'd a voice that would soften the hardest of hearts
[03:05.10] Whether l took the lead
[03:08.21] Or in character parts
[03:12.30] l have sat by the bedside of poor little Nell
[03:17.69] When the curfew was rung, then l swung on the bell
[03:22.68] ln the pantomime season l never fell flat
[03:26.98] And l once under-studied Dick Whittington's cat
[03:33.16] But the grandest creation as history will tell
[03:40.82] was Firefrofiddle, the fiend of the fell
[03:52.29] Then if someone will give him a toothful of gin
[03:56.63]
[04:01.36] At a Shakespeare performance he once walked on pat
[04:05.39] When some actor suggested the need for a cat
[04:11.59] And l say that these kittens
[04:14.44] They do not get trained as we did in the days
[04:16.81] When Victoria reigned
[04:22.38] They never get drilled in a regular troupe
[04:27.10] And they think they are smart just to jump through a hoop
[04:31.98] And he says as he scratches himself with his claws
[04:37.90] Well, the theatre is certainly not what it was
[04:45.10] These modern productions are all very well
[04:50.66] But there's nothing to equal from what l hear tell
[04:57.56] That moment of mystery
[05:02.43] When l made history as Firefrofiddle
[05:11.75] the fiend of the fell《
[05:25.40] These modern productions are all very well
[05:34.14] But there's nothing to equal from what l hear tell
[05:42.54] That moment of mystery
[05:48.10]
