[00:07.38]Everybody wants to be a cat
[00:11.31]Because a cat's the only cat
[00:13.27]Who knows where it's at
[00:15.35]Everybody's picking up that feline beat
[00:19.12]Cause everything else is obsolete
[00:23.54]A square with a horn
[00:25.12]Makes you wish you weren't born
[00:27.03]Every time he plays
[00:31.20]With a square in the act
[00:33.15]You can set music back to the caveman days
[00:39.31]I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
[00:43.36]Sting a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing
[00:47.22]Who wants to dig a long-haired gigger stuff like that?
[00:51.43]When everybody wants to be a cat
[00:55.95]
[01:02.74]Everybody wants to be a cat
[01:11.12]Everybody wants to be a cat
[01:15.33]Because a cat's the only cat
[01:17.52]Who knows where it's at
[01:19.43]When playing jazz you always have a welcome mat
[01:23.51]Cause everybody digs a swinging cat
[01:27.48]A square with a horn

[01:31.27]Every time he plays
[01:35.34]With a square in the act
[01:37.17]You can set music back to the caveman days
[01:43.23]I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
[01:47.33]Still a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing
[01:51.20]Who wants to dig a long-haired gig like that?
[01:55.40]When everybody wants to be a cat
[01:59.84]Everybody wants to be a cat…
[02:29.81]If you want to turn me on
[02:33.75]Play your horn don't spare the tone
[02:37.51]And blow a little soul into the tune
[02:50.42]Lets take it to another key
[02:53.53]Modulate and wait for me
[02:57.50]I'll take a few and listen pretty soon
[03:05.23]The other cats will all commence
[03:09.17]Congregating on the fence
[03:13.69]Beneath the alley's only light
[03:17.64]Where every note is out of sight
[03:25.84]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 picking up that feline beat
Cause everything else is obsolete
A square with a horn
Makes you wish you weren't born
Every time he plays
With a square in the act
You can set music back to the caveman days
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
Sting a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing
Who wants to dig a long-haired gigger stuff like that?
When everybody wants to be a cat
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
When playing jazz you always have a welcome mat
Cause everybody digs a swinging cat
A square with a horn
Makes you wish you weren't born
Every time he plays
With a square in the act
You can set music back to the caveman days
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing
Still a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing
Who wants to dig a long-haired gig like that?
When everybody wants to be a cat
Everybody wants to be a cat…
If you want to turn me on
Play your horn don't spare the tone
And blow a little soul into the tune
Lets take it to another key
Modulate and wait for me
I'll take a few and listen pretty soon
The other cats will all commence
Congregating on the fence
Beneath the alley's only light
Where every note is out of sight
Everybody wants to be a cat…
