The Rum Tum Tugger

Meow.

Meow.

The Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat:
If you offer me pheasant, I'd rather have grouse.
If you put me in a house I would much prefer a flat,
If you put me in a flat than I'd rather have a house.
If you set me on a mouse than I only want a rat,
If you set me on a rat than I'd rather chase a mouse.

The Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat--
And there isn't any need for me to shout it:
For he will do
As he do do

And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore:
When you let me in, then I want to go out;
I'm always on the wrong side of every door,
And as soon as I'm at home, then I'd like to get about.
I like to lie in the bureau drawer,
But I make such a fuss if I can't get out.

The Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat--
And there isn't any use for you to doubt it:
For he will do
As he do do

And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast:
My disobliging ways are a matter of habit.
If you ofer me fish then I always want a feast;
When there isn't any fish then I won't eat rabbit.
If you offer me cream then I sniff and sneer,
For I only like
What I find
For myself...
No.
So you'll catch me in it right up to my ears,
If you put it away on the larder shelf.

The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing,
The Rum Tum Tugger

Doesn't care for a cuddle;
But I'll leap on your lap in the middle of your sewing,
For there's nothing I enjoy like a horrible muddle.

The Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat.
The Rum Tum Tugger doesn't care for a cuddle.

The Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat--
And there isn't any need for me to spout it:
For he will do As he do do

And there's no doing anything about it!
