Everybody Wants to be a Cat Everybody wants to be a cat Because a cat s the only cat who knows where it s at. Everybody s pickin up on the feline beat, Cause everything else is obsolete. A square with horn, makes you wish you weren t born, every 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 ve tried to sing, But still a cat s the only cat who knows how to swing Who wants to dig a long-haired gig and stuff like that, When everybody wants to be a cat? Everybody wants to be a cat Because a cat s the only cat who knows where it s at. Everybody s pickin up on the feline beat, Cause everything else is obsolete. A square with horn, makes you wish you weren t born, every 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 cat s the only cat who knows where it s at When playing jazz, you always have a welcome mat, Cause everybody digs a swinging cat Cause everybody digs a swinging cat Cause everybody digs a swinging cat Meow

Long John One day, one day As I was walking along Well I met up with a man. And he taught me this song. About a long John. He was a long gone. He was a long gone. He was Lost John. Now John had, A pair of shoes Funniest little shoes I ever did see. They had a heel in front And a heel behind. And he never knew which, way he was a-going. He s Long John. He s long gone. Like a turkey through the corn, With his long clothes on. Make New Friends Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold.
