Cats Musical Old Deuteronomy Lyrics

CAST:
Well of all things can it be really
Yes, no, ho, hi, oh my eye!
My mind may be wondering but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

MUNKUSTRAP:
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

THE RUM TUM TUGGER:
Old Deuteronomy's buried nine wives
And more I am tempted to say-ninety nine
And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives
And the villiage is pround of him in his decline

MUNKUSTRAP:
At the sight of that placid and grand phsiognomy When he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall
The oldest habitant croaks

MUNKUSTRAP AND THE RUM TUM TUGGER:
Well of all things can it be really
Yes, no, ho, hi, oh my eye!
My mind may be wondering but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

CAST (2X):
Well of all things can it be really
Yes, no, ho, hi, oh my eye!
My mind may be wondering but I confess
I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

CAST:
Well of all things can it be really
Yes, no, ho, hi, oh my eye!

OLD DEUTERONOMY:
My legs may be tottery I must go slow
And be careful of Old Deuteronomy
