<pre><font size='+2'>GUS THE THEATRE CAT lyrics WEBBER ANDREW LLOYD</font><br>Gus is the cat at the theatre door<br />
His name, as I ought to have told you before<br />
Is really Asparagus, and that`s a fuss to pronounce<br />
That we usually call him just Gus<br />
His coat`s very shabby, he`s thin as a rake<br />
And he suffers from palsy that makes his paw shake<br />
Yet he was in his youth quite the smartest of cats<br />
But no longer a terror to mice or to rats<br />
<br />
For he isn`t the cat that he was in his prime<br />
Though his name was quite famous, he says, in his time<br />
And whenever he joins his friends at their club<br />
(Which takes place at the back of the neighboring pub)<br />
He loves to regale them, if someone else pays<br />
With anecdotes drawn from his palmiest days<br />
For he once was a star of the highest degree<br />
He has acted with Irving, he`s acted with Tree<br />
And he likes to relate his success on the halls<br />
Where the gallery once gave him seven cat calls<br />
But his greatest creation as he loves to tell<br />
Was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell<br />
<br />
I have played in my time every possible part<br />
And I used to know seventy speeches by heart<br />
I`d extemporize backchat, I knew how to gag<br />
And I knew how to let the cat out of the bag<br />
I knew how to act with my back and my tail<br />
With an hour of rehearsal, I never could fail<br />
I`d a voice that would soften the hardest of hearts<br />
Whether I took the lead, or in character parts<br />
I have sat by the bedside of poor little Nell<br />
When the curfew was rung then I swung on the bell<br />
In the pantomime season, I never fell flat<br />
And I once understudied Dick Whittington`s cat<br />
But my grandest creation, as history will tell<br />
was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell<br />
<br />
Then, if someone will give him a toothful of gin<br />
He will tell how he once played a part in East Lynne<br />
At a Shakespeare performance he once walked on pat<br />
When some actor suggested the need for a cat<br />
<br />
And I say now these kittens, they do not get trained<br />
As we did in the days when Victoria reigned<br />
They never get drilled in a regular troupe<br />
And they think they are smart just to jump through a hoop<br />
<br />
And he says as he scratches himself with his claws<br />
Well the theatre is certainly not what is was<br />
These modern productions are all very well<br />
But there`s nothing to equal from what I hear tell<br />
That moment of mystery when I made history<br />
As Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell<br />
<br />
I once crossed the stage on the telegraph wire<br />
To rescue a child when a house was on fire<br />
And I think that I still can much better than most<br />
Produce blood curdling noises to bring on the ghost<br />
And I once played Growltiger<br />
Could do it again, could do it again<br />
Could do it again<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/gus_the_theatre_cat_lyrics-webber_andrew_lloyd.html" target='_blank'>GUS THE THEATRE CAT lyrics WEBBER ANDREW LLOYD</a></pre>

Gus is the cat at the theatre door
His name, as I ought to have told you before
Is really Asparagus, and that`s a fuss to pronounce
That we usually call him just Gus
His coat`s very shabby, he`s thin as a rake
And he suffers from palsy that makes his paw shake
Yet he was in his youth quite the smartest of cats
But no longer a terror to mice or to rats

For he isn`t the cat that he was in his prime
Though his name was quite famous, he says, in his time
And whenever he joins his friends at their club
(Which takes place at the back of the neighboring pub)
He loves to regale them, if someone else pays
With anecdotes drawn from his palmiest days
For he once was a star of the highest degree
He has acted with Irving, he`s acted with Tree
And he likes to relate his success on the halls
Where the gallery once gave him seven cat calls
But his greatest creation as he loves to tell
Was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell

I have played in my time every possible part
And I used to know seventy speeches by heart
I`d extemporize backchat, I knew how to gag
And I knew how to let the cat out of the bag
I knew how to act with my back and my tail
With an hour of rehearsal, I never could fail
I`d a voice that would soften the hardest of hearts
Whether I took the lead, or in character parts
I have sat by the bedside of poor little Nell
When the curfew was rung then I swung on the bell
In the pantomime season, I never fell flat
And I once understudied Dick Whittington`s cat
But my grandest creation, as history will tell
was Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell

Then, if someone will give him a toothful of gin
He will tell how he once played a part in East Lynne
At a Shakespeare performance he once walked on pat
When some actor suggested the need for a cat

And I say now these kittens, they do not get trained
As we did in the days when Victoria reigned
They never get drilled in a regular troupe
And they think they are smart just to jump through a hoop

And he says as he scratches himself with his claws
Well the theatre is certainly not what is was
These modern productions are all very well
But there`s nothing to equal from what I hear tell
That moment of mystery when I made history
As Firefrorefiddle, the fiend of the fell

I once crossed the stage on the telegraph wire
To rescue a child when a house was on fire
And I think that I still can much better than most
Produce blood curdling noises to bring on the ghost
And I once played Growltiger
Could do it again, could do it again
Could do it again
