Ev'rybody Wants To Be a Cat

Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at
Tell me everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat
'Cause everything else is obsolete

A square with a horn
Makes you wish you weren't born
Ever'time he plays (ever'time he plays)
But with a square in the act
You can set music back
To the caveman days

I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
(Tried to sing still)
But still a cat's the only cat
Who knows how to swing (knows how to swing)
Who wants to diga long-haired gigor stuff like that?
(Swing, swing, swing)
When everybody wants to be a cat
No, nothing wrong with that

A square with that horn
Makes you wish you weren't born
Ever'time he plays
But with a square in the act
You can set music back
To the caveman days

Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at
While playin' jazz he always has a welcome mat
'Cause everybody digs a swingin' cat (I swing with that)
