The Rum Tum Tugger |
| The second cat we are introduced to is «The Rum Tum Tugger,» |
| a playful prankster that the female cats find extremely attractive. |
| Tugger explains how fussy he can be: he wants what he doesn’t have, |
| and doesn’t want what’s offered to him. |
| The one thing that he does |
| enjoy is being the center of attention, which he is throughout |
| the number. |
| ALL: |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat |
| RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| If you offer me pheasant, I’d rather have grouse |
| If you put me in a house, I would much prefer a flat |
| If you put me in a flat, I would rather have a house |
| If you set me on a mouse, then I only want a rat |
| If you set me on a rat, then I’d rather chase a mouse |
| ALL: |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat |
| RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| And there isn’t any need for me to shout it ALL: |
| For he will do as he did do RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| And there’s nothing doing about it MESTOFFELEES: |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore |
| RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| When you let me in, then I want to go out |
| I’m always on the wrong side of every door |
| And as soon as I’m at home, then I’d like to get about |
| I like to lie in the bureau drawer |
| And I make such a fuss if I can’t get out |
| ALL: |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat |
| RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| And there isn’t any need for you to doubt it ALL: |
| For he will do as he did do RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| And there’s no doing anything about it ALL: |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast |
| RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| My disobliging ways are a matter of habit |
| If you offer me fish, then I always want a feast |
| When there isn’t any fish, then I won’t eat rabbit |
| If you offer me cream, then I sniff and sneer |
| For I only like what I find for myself |
| So you’ll catch me in it right up to my ears |
| If you put it away on the larder shelf |
| ALL: |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing |
| The Rum Tum Tugger |
| RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| Doesn’t care for a cuddle |
| But I’ll leap upon your lap in the middle of your sewing |
| For there’s nothing I enjoy like a horrible muddle |
| ALL: |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat |
| The Rum Tum Tugger doesn’t care for a cuddle |
| The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat |
| RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| And there isn’t any need for me to spout it ALL: |
| For he will do as he did do RUM TUM TUGGER: |
| And there’s nothing doing about it! |
