Robie Lester - Everybody Wants to Be a Cat lyrics

Everybody wants to be a cat Because a cat's the only cat Who knows where it's at Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat 'cause everything else is obsolete Now a square with a horn Can make you wish you weren't born Ever'time he plays; And with a square in the act He can set music back To the caveman days I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing But a cat's the only cat Who knows how to swing Who wants to dig A long-haired gig Or stuff like that? When everybody wants to be a cat A square with that horn Makes you wish you weren't born Ever'time he plays; And with a square in the act He's gonna set this music back To the Stone Age days Everybody wants to be a cat Because a cat's the only cat Who knows where it's at; While playin' jazz you always has a Welcome mat 'cause everybody digs a swingin' cat Everybody digs a swingin' cat
