The Cats - Old Deuteronomy lyrics

Your rating:

The entire tribe rejoins as their benevolent and wise 

leader Old Deuteronomy arrives. The cats adore and respect him. 



SOLO: 

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy 



ALL: 

Well of all things can it be really 

No. Yes. Ho. Hi. Oh my eye! 

My mind may be wandering but I confess 

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy 



SOLO: 

Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time 

He's a cat who has lived many lives in succession 

He was famous in proverb and famous in rhyme 

A long while before Queen Victoria's accession 



Old Deuteronomy's buried nine wives 

And more I am tempted to say ninety-nine 

And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives 

And the village is proud of him in his decline 



At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy 

When he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall 

The oldest inhabitant croaks: 



Well of all things can it be really 

No. Yes. Ho. Hi. Oh my eye! 

My mind may be wandering but I confess 

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy 



ALL: 

Well of all things can it be really 

No. Yes. Ho. Hi. Oh my eye! 

My mind may be wandering but I confess 

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy 



Well of all things can it be really 

No. Yes. Ho. Hi. Oh my eye! 

My mind may be wandering but I confess 

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy 



Well of all things can it be really 

No. Yes. Ho. Hi. Oh my eye! 



OLD DUTERONOMY: 

My legs may be tottery, I must go slow 

And be careful of Old Deuteronomy 



Munkustrap has assembled some entertainment for Deuteronomy. 

The cats put on a show called "The Awful Battle of the Pekes and 

the Pollicles together with The Marching Song of the Pollicle Dogs." 

In the show, which Munkustrap narrates, the cats dress up as two 

rival dog factions: the Pekes and the Pollicles. The two groups 

bark ceaselessly at each other, until they are frightened away by 

the great Rumpus Cat, a sleek, powerful feline.
