[COMPANY] The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat [RUM TUM TUGGER] 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'd rather have 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 [COMPANY] The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat [RUM TUM TUGGER] And there isn't any call for me to shout it [COMPANY] For he will do as he do do [RUM TUM TUGGER] And there's no doing anything abou-a-wow-t it [MALE CATS] The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore [RUM TUM TUGGER] When you let me in, then I want to go out I'm always on the wrong side of every door As soon as I'm at home, then 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 [COMPANY] The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat [RUM TUM TUGGER] And there isn't any use for you to doubt it [COMPANY] For he will do as he do do [RUM TUM TUGGER] And there's no doing anything abou-a-wow-a-wow-t it [BOMBALURINA] The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast [RUM TUM TUGGER] My disobliging ways are a matter of habit If you offer me fish then I always want a feast When there isn't any fish then I won't eat rabbit If you offer me cream then I sniff and sneer For I only like what I find for myself Mmm! So you'll catch me in it right up to my ears If you put it away on the larder shelf [COMPANY] The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing The Rum Tum Tugger... [RUM TUM TUGGER] Doesn't care for a cuddle But I'll leap on your lap in the middle of your sewing For there's nothing I enjoy like a horrible muddle [COMPANY] 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 [RUM TUM TUGGER] And there isn't any need for me to spout it [COMPANY] For he will do as he do do [RUM TUM TUGGER] And there's no doing anything abou-a-bou-wow-a-bou-a-wow-a-wow-a-wow-a-wow-about it!
