Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats 杰里可歌颂杰里可猫
Are you blind when you're born? Can you see in the dark? Dare you look at a king? Would you sit on his throne? Can you say of your bite that it's worse than your bark? Are you cock of the walk when you're walking alone? Because Jellicles are and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles would Jellicles would and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do
When you fall on your head, Do you land on your feet? Are you tense when you sense There's a storm in the air? Can you find your way blind When you're lost in the street? Do you know how to go to the Heaviside Layer?
Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant? Familiar with candle, with book, and w
ith bell? Were you Whittington's friend? The Pied Piper's assistant? Have you been an alumnus of heaven and hell?
Are you mean like a minx? Are you lean like a lynx? Are you keen to be seen when you're smelling a rat? Were you there when the pharaohs commissioned the Sphinx? If you were and you are, you're a Jellicle Cat!

glamourWe can dive through the air like a flying trapeze We can turn double somersaults, bounce on a tire We can run up a wall, we can swing through the trees We can balance on bars, we can walk on a wire
Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats
Can you sing at the same time in more than one key? Duets by Rossini and waltzes by Strauss? And can you (as cats do) begin with a 'C'? That always triumphantly brings down the house?
Jellicle Cats are queen of the nights Singing at astronomical heights Handling pieces from 'The Messiah' Hallelujah, angelical choir
The mystical divinity of unashamed felinity 'Round the cathedral rang 'Vivat' Life to the everlasting cat! Feline, fearless, faithful and true To others who do what
Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicle Cats sing Jellicle Chants Jellicles old and Jellicles new Jellicle song and Jellicle dance Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

There's a man over there with a look of surprise As much as to say as to say now, well how about that? Do I actually see with my own very eyes A man who's not heard of a Jellicle Cat? What's a Jellicle Cat? What's a Jellicle Cat?
欢快的主旋律“Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats”贯穿了这个部分，强烈的节奏使人想随着一块舞动
猫的命名 The Naming of Cats
The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter It isn't just one of your holiday games You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter When I tell you a cat must have three different names
First of all, there's the name that the family use daily Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey All of them are sensible, everyday names
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter But all of them sensible, everyday names
But I tell you, a cat needs a name that's particular A name that's peculiar and more dignified Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular? Or spread out his whiskers or cherish his pride?
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat Such as Bombalurina or else Jellylorum Names that never belong to more than one cat
But above and beyond, there's still one name left over And that is the name that you never will guess The name that no human research can discover But the cat himself knows and will never confess
When you notice a cat in profound meditation The reason, I tell you, is always the same His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation Of the thought Of the thought Of the thought Of his name His ineffable Effable Effanineffable Deep and inscrutable singular Name, name, name, name, name, name, name
