Talk About the Cat

Lyrics

We like to...

CHORUS
Have a little chat
And talk about the cat
Sitting on the mat
Fancy that
I don’t remember when
You became my friend
I know I know I know
It was a long time ago

We spend our time together, your house and mine
And when the sun goes down we like to

CHORUS

We play our guitars and we do it every day
Strum along, sing a song, then it’s time to

CHORUS

Maybe we were just lucky, but we just knew
That we’d be best friends, and we still love to

CHORUS

Very Strange Cat

Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

Lyrics

A cat came to stay just the other day
I already had one but I thought well, it might be fun
To have two in the house, make life hard for the mouse.

So, as from now there’ll be a second meiow
Every morning at seven – “Let them in, will you Kevin?”

“I say, you’re an awfully good chap” said the brand new cat
“Could you see your way clear to fetch some milk over here?
My throat’s rather dry and well not to be shy…
So what do you think, any chance of a drink?”

I found him a glass extra fast
He licked and slurped, swallowed then burped
Then said with a wave “Must be off, got to see Dave.”
He never came back – and that was that.
Very strange cat!

George Cryolot Crumble

Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

Lyrics

There once was a pussy cat called George Cryolot Crumble
And each day from the shed he would eventually stumble.
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble.

One morning in May, when rain was a-falling,
There was a scratching on the shed, was that his master calling?
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble.

He opened the door, and standing there before him
Was a Great Dane as tall, as tall as a building.
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble.

“I’m as hungry as hungry as hungry” said the Great Dane
George shivered in fright in the wind and the rain.
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble
Meiow, meiow, cried George Cryolot Crumble.

And what do you know about that shed and that pussy cat?
Well all I can say is that the Great Dane is now rather, in fact, I’d say, very, very, very fat!
Meiow, meiow, was that a tummy rumble?
Meiow, meiow, poor George Cryolot Crumble.

Hadrian's Wall

Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon

Lyrics

Cat’s in the garden every morning
Scratch up Dad’s flower beds
I said to myself I’d better stop playing and
Go build a wall instead.

Chorus
Hadrian, Hadrian build it build it
Keep those cats from coming in
Hadrian Hadrian build it build it
They’re jumping and they’re tipping up the rubbish bin
You gotta build that wall.

I’ve noticed that Dad’s blood pressure rises
When neighbourhood cats drop in
If I was a cat I’d just take the hint and
No longer invite myself in.

Chorus

So just as the Picts were kept out of England
In 132 AD
There’ll be hundreds of cats kept out of our garden
For the rest of this century.

Chorus
