MUNKUSTRAP:
I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
Her name is Jennyanydots
Her coat is of the tabby kind
With tiger stripes and leopard spots
All day she sits up on the stair
Or on the steps or on the mat
She sits and sits and sits and sits
And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
That's what makes a Gumbie Cat!
DEMETER, BOMBALURINA, JELLYLORUM:
But when the days hustle and bustle is done then
The Gumbie Cat's work has but hardly begun
And when all the family's in bed and asleep
She tucks up her skirt to the basement to creep
She is deeply concerned with the ways of the mice
JENNYANYDOTS:
Their behaviour's not good and their manner's not nice!
DEMETER, BOMBALURINA, JELLYLORUM:
So when she has got them lined up on the matting
She teaches them
JENNYANYDOTS:
Music, crotcheting and tatting
MUNKUSTRAP:
I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
Her name is Jennyanydots
A curtain cord she likes to wind
And tie it into sailor knots
She sits upon the windowsill
Or anything thats smooth and flat
She sits and sits and sits and sits
And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
That's what makes a Gumbie Cat!
DEMETER, BOMBALURINA, JELLYLORUM:
But when the day's hustle and bustle is done then
The Gumbie Cat's work has but hardly begun
She thinks that the coackroaches
JENNYANYDOTS:
Just need employment!
DEMETER, BOMBALURINA, JELLYLORUM:
To prevent them from
JENNYANYDOTS:
Idle and wanton destroyment!
DEMETER, BOMBALURINA, JELLYLORUM:
So she's formed from that lot of disorderly louts
A troop of well-disciplined helpful boy scouts
JENNYANYDOTS:
With a purpose in mind and a good deed to do!
DEMETER, BOMBALURINA, JELLYLORUM:
And she's even created a Beetles Tattoo!
CHORUS:
For she's a jolly good fellow!
JENNYANYDOTS:
Thank you my dears!
