Judi Dench's The Ad-dressing of Cats but I'm narrating the other cats' thoughts


Lyrics

00:03
OLD DEUTERONOMY: You've heard of several kinds of cats
00:08
And my opinion now is that You should need no interpreter
00:16
To understand our character.
00:20
You've learned enough to take the view That cats are very much like you.
00:28
You've seen us both at work and games, And learnt about our proper names,
00:36
Our habits, and our habitat, But how would you address a cat?
00:49
So first, your memory I'll jog, And say: a cat is not a dog.
01:01
ALL: So first, your memory I'll jog, And say: a cat is not a dog.
01:17
OLD DEUTERONOMY: With cats, some say, one rule is true:
01:22
Don't speak 'til you are spoken to.
01:28
Myself, I do not hold with that.
01:32
I say, you should address a cat.
01:36
But always bear in mind that he Resents familiarity.
01:45
You bow, and, taking off your hat, Address him in this form: Oh Cat!
01:59
ALL: Oh Cat!
02:04
OLD DEUTERONOMY: Before a cat will condescend To treat you as a trusted friend,
02:12
Some little token of esteem Is needed, like a dish of cream
02:19
Or you might now and then supply Some caviar, or Strasbourg pie,
02:26
Some potted grouse, or salmon paste, He's sure to have his personal taste.
02:34
And so in time you'll reach your aim, And call him by his name.
02:46
ALL: A cat's entitled to expect These evidences of respect.
02:56
So this is this, and that is that, And there's how you address a cat.

Bon Jovi - In These Arms

Bon Jovi - In These Arms Lyrics You want commitment, and take a look into these eyes. They burn with fire, Yeah, until the end of time. And I would do anything, I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd die to have you in theses arms tonight. Baby I want you like the roses want the rain, You know I need you like a poet needs the pain. And I would give anything. My blood, my love, my life. If you were in these arms tonight. I'd hold you, I'd need you, I'd get down on my knees for you. And make everything alright, If you were in these arms. I'd love you, I'd please you, I'd tell you that I'd never leave you. And love you till the end of time, if you were in these arms tonight. Oh, yeah. We stare at the sun, and we made a promise. A promise this world would never blind us. And these were our words. Our words were our songs. Our songs are our prayers. These prayers keep me strong, and I still believe. If you were in these arms. I'd hold you, I'd need you, I...
