You ought to ask Mr Mistoffelees

The original Conjuring Cat

The greatest magicians have something to learn

From Mr Mistoffelees's conjuring turn

Presto

And you'll all say:

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

He is quiet and small

He is black

From the ears to the tip of his tail

He can creep through the tiniest crack

He can walk on the narrowest rail

He can pick any card from a pack

He is equally cunning with dice

He is always decieving you into believing

That he's only hunting for mice

He can play any trick with a cork

Or a spoon and a bit of fish paste

If you look for a knife or a fork

And you think it was merely misplaced

You have seen it one moment and then it is gone

But you find it next week lying out on the lawn

And we all say:

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

His manner is vague and aloof

You would think there was nobody shyer

But his voice has been heard on the roof

When he was curled up by the fire

And he's sometimes been heard by the fire

When he was about on the roof

(At least we all heard that somebody purred)

Which is uncontestable proof

Of his singular magical powers

And I've known the family to call

Him in from the garden for hours

When he was asleep in the hall

And not long ago this phenomenal cat

Produced seven kittens right out of a hat

And we all say:

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Oh Well I never Was there ever

A cat so clever as magical Mr Mistoffelees

Ladies and gentlemen

I give you the marvelous

Magical Mr Mistoffelees

Presto
