Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
Well, little lady, let me elucidate [E]here

[Verse 1]
[Am]Everybody wants to be a cat
Because a [F]cat's the only [Dm]cat
who [B]knows where it's [E]at
Tell me, [Am]everybody's pickin' up
on that feline beat
[F]'Cause everything els[Dm]e is obs[Em]olete[Am]

[Bridge 1]
A [Dm]square with a horn
Makes you wish you weren't [G]born
Every [C]time he plays
But with a [Dm]square in the [E]act
You can [Dm]set music [E]back
To the [Am]caveman [Dm]days
Cha- cha- [E]cha- chum- bo-zay

[Verse 2]
I've [Am]heard some corny birds
who tried to sing
Still a [F]cat's the only [Dm]cat
Who [B]knows how to [E]swing
Who [Am]wants to dig a long-haired gig
and stuff like that?
[F]When everybod[Dm]y wants to be [Em]a cat[Am]

[Bridge 2]
A [Dm]square with a horn
Makes you wish you weren't [G]born
Every [C]time he plays, oh- a ricky-ticky-ticky
With a [Dm]square in the [E]act
You can [Dm]set music [E]back
To the [Am]caveman [Dm]days, oh- [E]a ricky-ticky-tincky

[Verse 3]
Yes, [Am]everybody wants to be a cat
Because a [F]cat's the only [Dm]cat
who [B]knows where it's [E]at
When [Am]playin' jazz
you always has a welcome mat
[F]'Cause everybod[Dm]y digs a swi[Em]ngin' cat[Am]
