Lyrics

[MUNKUSTRAP] Are you blind when you're born? [DEMETER] Can you see in the dark? [ASPARAGUS] Dare you look at a king? [SKIMBLESHANKS] Would you sit on his throne? [RUM TUM TUGGER] Can you say of your bite that it's worse than your bark? [ALONZO] Are you cock of the walk... [GRIZABELLA] ...When you're walking alone? [COMPANY] Because Jellicles are and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles would Jellicles would and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do [JELLYLORUM] When you fall on your head do you land on your feet? [CORICOPAT] Are you tense when you sense there's a storm in the air? [SILLABUB] Can you find your way blind when you're lost in the street? [OLD DEUTERONOMY] Do you know how to go to the Heaviside Layer? [COMPANY] Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do [TANTOMILE] Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant? [JENNYANYDOTS] Familiar with candle [ELECTRA & FEMALE CAT] With book and with bell? [BOMBALURINA] Were you Whittington's friend? [MR. MISTOFFELEES] The Pied Piper's assistant? [TUMBLEBRUTUS] Have you been an alumnus of Heaven and Hell? [MALE CAT] Are you mean like a minx? [FEMALE CAT] Are you lean like a lynx? [MALE CAT] Are you keen to be seen when you're smelling a rat? [CASSANDRA] Were you there when the pharaohs commissioned the Sphinx? [COMPANY] If you were and you are you're a Jellicle cat! Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze We can turn double somersaults, bounce on a tire We can run up a wall, we can swing through the trees We can balance on bars, we can walk on a wire Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats [FEMALE CATS] Can you sing at the same time in more than one key? Duets by Rossini [MALE CATS] And waltzes by Strauss [FEMALE CATS] Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah [MALE CATS] And can you, as cats do, begin with a "C"? [FEMALE CAT] C! [COMPANY] That always triumphantly brings down the house! Jellicle cats are queen of the night Singing at astronomical height Handling pieces from the Messiah Hallelujah, angelical choir The mystical divinity Of unashamed felinity Round the cathedral rang "Vivat" Life to the Everlasting Cat! Feline, fearless, faithful and true To others who do... what... Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicle cats sing Jellicle chants Jellicles old and Jellicles new Jellicle song and Jellicle dance Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Practical cats, dramatical cats Pragmatical cats, fanatical cats Oratorical cats, Delphic-oracle cats Skeptical cats, dyspeptical cats Romantical cats, pedantical cats Critical cats, parasitical cats Allegorical cats, metaphorical cats Statistical cats and mystical cats Political cats, hypocritical cats Clerical cats, hysterical cats Cynical cats, rabbinical cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
