Mr. Mistoffolees - CATS

The Rum Tum Tugger calls in "Mr. Mistoffolees," the original 
"conjuring cat" to use his magical powers to bring back their 
leader. Mistoffolees succeeds in getting back all of the lights, 
relocating Old Deuteronomy, and showing off his magic tricks, 
including his infamous "conjuring turn."

SOLO: 
You ought to ask Mr. Mistoffolees! 
The original conjuring cat 

The greatest magicians have something to learn 
From Mister Mistoffolees' conjuring turn 
And you'll all say 

Oh! Well I never was there ever 
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffolees 

He is quiet, he is small, he is black 
From the ears to the tip of his tail 
He can creep through the tiniest crack 
He can walk on the narrowest rail 

He can pick any card from a pack 
He is equally cunning with dice 
He is always deceiving you into believing 
That he's only hunting for mice 

He can play any trick with a cork 
Or a spoon and a bit of fish paste 
If you look for a knife or a fork 
And you think it is merely misplaced 

You have seen it one moment and then it's gone! 
But you find it next week lying on the lawn 
And we all say 

ALL: 
Oh! Well I never was there ever 
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffolees 

And we all say 
Oh! Well I never was there ever 
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffolees 

And we all say 
Oh! Well I never was there ever 
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffolees 

And we all say 
Oh! Well I never was there ever 
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffolees 

MR. MISTOFFOLEES: 
Well! My manner is vague and aloof 
You would think there was nobody shyer 
But voice has been heard on the roof 
When I was curled up by the fire 

And I've sometimes been heard by the fire 
When I was about on the roof 
At least they all heard that somebody purred 
Which is uncontestable proof of my singular magical powers 
And I've known the family to call me in from the garden for hours 
While I was asleep in the hall 

SOLO: 
And not long ago this phenomenal cat 
Produced seven kittens right out of a hat 

ALL: 
And we all say 
Oh! Well I never was there ever 
A cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffolees
