Everybody wants  to be a cat,
because  a cat's  the only  cat
 who knows  where it's at.
Everybody's pickin'  up on that feline beat,
'cause  everything else  is obsolete.
Now  a square  with a horn,
can  make you wish  you weren't born,
 ever'time  he plays;
and  with a square in the act,
 he can set music back
 to the caveman days.
I've  heard some corny birds  who tried to sing,
but  a cat's  the only cat
 who knows  how to swing.
 
 Who wants to dig
 a long-haired gig
 or stuff like that?
 When everybody wants to be a cat.
 A square with that horn,
 makes you wish you weren't born,
 ever'time he plays;
 and with a square in the act,
 he's gonna set this music back
 to the Stone Age days.
 Everybody wants to be a cat,
 because a cat's the only cat
 who knows where it's at;
 while playin' jazz you always has a Welcome mat,
 'cause everybody digs a swingin' cat.
 Everybody digs a swingin' cat.
