Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats 杰里可歌颂杰里可猫

Are you blind when you're born? Can you see in the dark? Dare

you look at a king? Would you sit on his throne? Can you say

of your bite that it's worse than your bark? Are you cock of

the walk when you're walking alone? Because Jellicles are and

Jellicles do Jellicles do and Jellicles would Jellicles would

and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do

When you fall on your head, Do you land on your feet? Are you

tense when you sense There's a storm in the air? Can you find

your way blind When you're lost in the street? Do you know how

to go to the Heaviside Layer?

Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and

Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles do and

Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant? Familiar

with candle, with book, and with bell? Were you Whittington's

friend? The Pied Piper's assistant? Have you been an alumnus

of heaven and hell?

Are you mean like a minx? Are you lean like a lynx? Are you keen

to be seen when you're smelling a rat? Were you there when the

pharaohs commissioned the Sphinx? If you were and you are,

you're a Jellicle Cat!

Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for

Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze We can turn

double somersaults, bounce on a tire We can run up a wall, we

can swing through the trees We can balance on bars, we can walk

on a wire

Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Jellicles can and Jellicles do Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle

Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for

Jellicle Cats

Can you sing at the same time in more than one key? Duets by

Rossini and waltzes by Strauss? And can you (as cats do) begin

with a 'C'? That always triumphantly brings down the house?

Jellicle Cats are queen of the nights Singing at astronomical

heights Handling pieces from 'The Messiah' Hallelujah,

angelical choir

The mystical divinity of unashamed felinity 'Round the

cathedral rang 'Vivat' Life to the everlasting cat! Feline,

fearless, faithful and true To others who do what

Jellicles do and Jellicles can Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Jellicle Cats sing Jellicle Chants Jellicles old and Jellicles

new Jellicle song and Jellicle dance Jellicle songs for

Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs

for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

Practical cats, dramatical cats, pragmatical cats, fanatical

cats Oratorical cats, delphicoracle cats, skeptical cats,

dispeptical cats Romantical cats, pedantical cats, critical

parasitical cats, allegorical cats Metaphorical cats,

statistical cats, and mystical cats Political cats,

hypocritical cats, clerical cats, hysterical cats Cynical cats,

rabbinical cats

Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for

Jellicle Cats Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats

There's a man over there with a look of surprise As much as to

say as to say now, well how about that? Do I actually see with

my own very eyes A man who's not heard of a Jellicle Cat? What's

a Jellicle Cat? What's a Jellicle Cat?

欢快的主旋律“Jellicle songs for Jellicle Cats”贯穿了这个部分，强烈的节奏使人想随着一块舞动

猫的命名 The Naming of Cats

The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter It isn't just one of

your holiday games You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter

When I tell you a cat must have three different names

First of all, there's the name that the family use daily Such

as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James Such as Victor or Jonathan,

George or Bill Bailey All of them are sensible, everyday names

There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter Some

for the gentlemen, some for the dames Such as Plato, Admetus,

Electra, Demeter But all of them sensible, everyday names

But I tell you, a cat needs a name that's particular A name

that's peculiar and more dignified Else how can he keep up his

tail perpendicular? Or spread out his whiskers or cherish his

pride?

Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum Such as Munkustrap,

Quaxo, or Coricopat Such as Bombalurina or else Jellylorum

Names that never belong to more than one cat

But above and beyond, there's still one name left over And that

is the name that you never will guess The name that no human

research can discover But the cat himself knows and will never

confess

When you notice a cat in profound meditation The reason, I tell

you, is always the same His mind is engaged in a rapt

contemplation Of the thought Of the thought Of the thought Of

his name His ineffable Effable Effanineffable Deep and

inscrutable singular Name, name, name, name, name, name, name

所有的猫聚在一起，诉说猫们的三个名字，给全剧渲染了神秘的气氛。

杰里可舞会的邀请 The Invitation of the Jellicle Ball

Jellicle Cats come out tonight Jellicle cats come one, come all

The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the

Jellicle Ball

Jellicle Cats come out tonight Jellicles come to the Jellicle

Ball

Jellicle cats come out tonight Jellicle cats come one, come all

The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the

Jellicle Ball

Jellicle Cats come out tonight Jellicle cats come one, come all

The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the

Jellicle Ball

Jellicle Cats meet once a year At the Jellicle Ball Where we

all rejoice And the Jellicle leader will soon appear And make

what is known as the Jellcle Choice When Old Deuteronomy, just

before dawn Through a silence you feel you could cut with a knife

Announces the Cat who can now be reborn And come back to a

different Jellicle life For waiting up there is the Heaviside

Layer With wonders one Jellicle only will see And Jellicles ask,

Because Jellicles dare: "Who will it be?"

老甘比猫 The Old Gumbie Cat

I have a Gumbie Cat in mind Her name is Jennyanydots Her coat

is of the tabby kind with tiger stripes and leopard spots All

day she sits beneath the stairs or on the steps or on the mat

She sits and sits and sits and sits and that's what makes a

Gumbie Cat That's what makes a Gumbie Cat

When the day's hustle and bustle is done Then the Gumbie

Cat's work is but hardly begun And when all the family's in bed

and asleep, She tucks up her skirts to the basement to creep

She is deeply concerned with the ways of the mice: Their

behavior's not good and their manners not nice So when she has

got them lined up on the matting She teaches them music,

crocheting and tatting

I have a Gumbie Cat in mind Her name is Jennyanydots The curtain

cord she likes to wind and tie it into sailor knots She sits

upon the windowsill or anything that's smooth and flat She sits

and sits and sits and sits and that's what makes a Gumbie Cat

That's what makes a Gumbie Cat

When the day's hustle and bustle is done Then the Gumbie

Cat's work is but hardly begun. As she finds that the mice will

not ever keep quiet, She is sure it is due to irregular diet;

And believing that nothing is done without trying, She sets

right to work with her baking and frying. She makes them a

mouse-cake of bread and dried peas, And a beautiful fry of lean

bacon and cheese.

I have a Gumbie Cat in mind, her name is Jennyanydots; The

curtain-cord she likes to wind, and tie it into sailor knots.

She sits upon the window-sill or anything that's smooth and flat;

She sits and sits and sits and sits and that's what makes a

Gumbie Cat!

When the day's hustle and bustle is done, Then the gumbie

cat's work is but hardly begun. She thinks that the cockroaches

just need employment To prevent them from idle and wanton

destroyment. So she's formed, from that lot of disorderly louts,

A troop of well-disciplined helpful boy-scouts, With a purpose

in life and a good deed to do And she's even created a Beetles

Tattoo!

For she's a jolly good fellow!

Thank you, my dears!

兰·堂·塔格 The Rum Tum Tugger

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat

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,

then I'd 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

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat And there isn't any need

for me to shout it For he will do as he do do And there's no

doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tigger is a terrible bore

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, But I make such

a fuss if I can't get out

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat

And there isn't any need for you to doubt it For he will do as

he do do And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast

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 snear

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

The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing The 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!

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 And there

isn't any need for me to spout it

For he will do as he do do

And there's no doing anything about it!

这位仁兄个性张扬、放荡，他唱着RAP与暧昧的旋律，迷倒了所有的母猫。。。

格瑞泽贝拉：魅力猫 Grizabella: The Glamour Cat

Remark the cat who hesitates toward you In the light of the door

which opens on her like a grin You see the border of her coat

is torn and stained with sand And you see the corner of her eye

twist like a crooked pin

She haunted many a low resort near the grimy road of Tottenham

Court She flitted about the No Man's Land From "The Rising Sun"

to "The Friend at Hand" And the postman sighed as he scratched

his head "You'd really had thought she ought to be dead" And

who would ever suppose that that was Grizabella the glamour cat

Grizabella, the glamour cat, Grizabella, the glamour cat Who

would ever suppose that that was Grizabella the glamour cat 可怜GRIZABELLA首次亮相，所有人都很鄙夷，不再多说了。

巴斯特弗·琼斯 Bustopher Jones Bustopher

Jones is not skin and bones In fact, he's remarkably fat He

doesn't haunt pubs, he has eight or nine clubs For he's the St.

James Street cat

He's the cat we all greet as we walk down the street In his coat

of fastidious black No common-place mousers have such well-cut

trousers Or such an impeccable back In the whole of St. James's

the smartest of names is The name of this Brummell of cats And

we're all of us proud to be nodded or bowed to By Bustopher Jones

in white spats

My visits are occasional to the senior educational And it is

against the rules For any one cat to belong both to that And

the joint superior schools

When I'm seen in a hurry there's probably curry At the Siamese

or at the Glutton When I look full of gloom then I've lunched

at the tomb On cabbage, rice pudding and mutton

In the whole of St. James's the smartest of names is The name

of this Brummell of cats And we're all of us proud to be nodded

or bowed to By Bustopher Jones in white, Bustopher Jones in

white Bustopher Jones in white spats

So much in this way passes Bustopher's day At one club or another

he's found It can be no surprise that under our eyes He has grown

unmistakably round

He's a twenty-five pounder or I am a bounder

And he's putting on weight every day

But I'm so well preserved because I've observed All my life a

routine and I'd say I am still in my prime, I shall last out

my time That's the word from this stoutest of cats

It must and it shall be spring in Pall Mall While Bustopher Jones

wears white, Bustopher Jones wears white Bustopher Jones wears

white spats

这也许是对人类社会里的高官权贵的影射。当这个家伙出尽风头后，恐怖的音乐响起，他跑的比谁都快，这也是一个讽刺吧：

蒙哥杰瑞与兰普蒂瑟 Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer

Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer were a notorious couple of cats

As knockabout clowns, quick-change comedians Tight-rope

walkers and acrobats They had an extensive reputation, made

their home in Victoria Grove That was merely their center of

operation for they were incurably given to rove

If the area window was found ajar and the basement looked like

a field of war If a tile or two came loose on the roof which

presently ceased to be waterproof If the drawers were pulled

out from bedroom chests And you couldn't find one of your winter

vests Or after supper one of the girls suddenly missed her

Woolworth pearls

Then the family would say "It's that horrible cat! It was

Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer!" And most of the time they left

it at that

Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer had an unusual gift of the gab They

were highly efficient cat burglars as welland remarkably smart

at a smash and grab They made their home in Victoria Grove, they

had no regular occupation They were plausible fellows who liked

to engage a friendly policeman in conversation

When the family assembled for Sunday dinner Their minds made

up that they wouldn't get thinner on Argentine joint, potatoes

and greens Then the cook would appear from behind the scenes

And say in a voice that was broken with sorrow "I'm afraid you

must wait and have dinner tomorrow The joint has gone from the

oven like that!"

Then the family would say "It's that horrible cat! It was

Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer!" And most of the time they left

it at that

Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer had a wonderful way of working

together And some of the time you would say it was luck and some

of the time you would say it was weather They'd go through the

house like a hurricane and no sober person could take his oath

Wasn't it Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer? Or could you have sworn

that it mightn't be both? When you heard a dining room smash

or up from the pantry there came a loud crash Or down from the

library came a loud ping From a vase which was commonly said

to be Ming Then the family would say, "Now which was which cat?

It was Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer and there's nothing at all

to be done about that!"

这是两个擅长恶作剧的捣蛋鬼，虽然一开始和后面的他魔头MACAVITY使用了同一个旋律，但是最后SAX（我想是SAX）吹出了一连串让人发笑的音符，气氛就缓和下来了。

老狄尤特洛诺米 Old Deuteronomy

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

Well, of all things can it be really No, Yes, H o, Hi, Oh my

eye! My mind may be wandering, but I confess I believe it is

Old Deuteronomy

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 Old

Deuteronomy's buried nine wives And more I am tempted to say

ninety-nine And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives And

the village is proud of him in his decline At the sight of that

placid and bland physiognomy When he sits in the sun on the

vicarage wall The oldest inhabitant croaks

Well, of all things can it be really No, Yes, H o, Hi, Oh my

eye! My mind may be wandering, but I confess I believe it is

Old Deuteronomy

Old Deuteronomy sits in the street, He sits in the High Street

on market day; The bullocks may below, the sheep they may bleat,

But the dogs and the herdsmen will turn them away. The cats and

the lorrie run over the kerb, And the villagers put up a notice:

ROAD CLOSED -- So that nothing untoward may chance to disturb

Deuteronomy's reset when he feels so disposed Or when he's

engaged in domestic economy: And the Oldest Inhabitant croaks

Well, of all things can it be really No, Yes, H o, Hi, Oh my

eye! My mind may be wandering, but I confess I believe it is

Old Deuteronomy

Old Deuteronomy lies on the floor Of the Fox and French Horn

for his afternoon sleep; And when the men say: 'There's just

time for one more," Then the landlady from her back parlour will

peep And say: "Now then, out you go, by the back door, For Old

Deuteronomy mustn't be woken -- I'll have the police if there's

any uproar" -- And out they all shuffle, without a word spoken.

The digestive repose of that feline's gastronomy Must never be

borken, whatever befall: And the Oldest Inhabitant croaks:

"Well, of all ...

Well, of all things can it be really No, Yes, H o, Hi, Oh my

eye! My mind may be wandering, but I confess I believe it is

Old Deuteronomy

Well, of all things can it be really No, Yes, H o, Hi, Oh my

eye! My mind may be wandering, but I confess I believe it is

Old Deuteronomy

Well, of all things can it be really No, Yes, H o, Hi, Oh my

eye!

My legs may be tottery I must go slow And be careful of Old

Deuteronomy

猫们的最高领袖首次亮相，优美和谐的旋律表现出了猫们对他的无比崇敬。

狗咬狗的恐怖事件 The Pekes and the Pollicles

Of the awful battle of the Pekes and the Pollicles Together with

some account Of the participation of the Pugs and the Poms And

the intervention of the Great Rumpus Cat

The Pekes and the Pollicles everyone knows Are proud and

implacable passionate foes It is always the same wherever one

goes And the Pugs and the Poms although most people say That

they do not like fighting yet once in a way They now and again

join into the fray

Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK!

Until you can hear them all over the Park

Now on the occasion of which I shall speak Almost nothing had

happened for nearly a week And that's a long time for a Pol or

a Peke The big Police Dog was away from his beat I don't know

the reason, but most people think He'd slipped into the

Wellington's Arms for a drink And no one at all was about on

the street When a Peke and a Pollicle happened to meet

They did not advance or exactly retreat But they glared at each

other and scraped their hind feet

And Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK!

Until you can hear them all over the Park

Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK!

Until you can hear them all over the Park

Now the Peke although people may say what they please Is no

British Dog, but a Heathen Chinese And so all the Pekes, when

they heard the uproar Some came to the window, some came to the

door There were surely a dozen, more likely a score And together

they started to grumble and wheeze In their huffery-snuffery

Heathen Chinese But a terrible din is what Pollicles like For

your Pollicle Dog is a dour Yorkshire tyke

There are dogs out of every nation The Irish, the Welsh and the

Dane The Russian, the Dutch, the Dalmatian And even from China

and Spain, The Poodle, the Pom, the Alsatian And the mastiff

who walks on a chain And to those that are frisky and frollical

Let my meaning be perfectly plain That my name it is Little Tom

Pollicle And you'd better not do it again

And his braw Scottish cousins are snappers and biters And every

dog-jack of them notable fighters And so they stepped out with

their pipers in order Playing When the Blue Bonnets Come Over

the Border

Then the Pug and the Poms held no longer aloof But some from

the balcony, some from the roof Join to the din Bark!

Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! Bark! BARK! BARK! Until you can hear

them all over the Park

Huffary Snuffary! Huffary Snuffary! Huffary Snuffary! Huffary

Snuff!

Until you can hear them all over the Park

When these bold heroes together assembled The traffic all

stopped, and the Underground trembled And some of the neighbors

were so much afraid That they started to ring up the Fire Brigade

When suddenly, up from the a small basement flat Why who should

stalk out but the Great Rumpus Cat

His eyes were like fireballs fearfully blazing He gave a great

yawn and his jaws were amazing And when he looked out through

the bars of the area You never saw anything fiercer or hairier

And what with the glare of his eyes and his yawning The Pekes

and the Pollicles quickly took warning He looked at the sky and

he gave a great leap And they every last one of them scattered

like sheep

And when the Police Dog returned to his beat There wasn't a

single one left in the street

All hail and all power to the Great Rumpus Cat!

Jellicle cats and dogs all must Pollice Dogs and cats all must

Like undertakers come to dust

杰里可舞会 The Jellicle Ball

Jellicle Cats come out tonight Jellicle Cats come one come all

The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the

Jellicle Ball

Jellicle Cats are black and white Jellicle Cats are rather small

Jellicle Cats are merry and bright And pleasant to hear when

we caterwaul

Jellicle Cats have cheerful faces Jellicle cats have bright

black eyes We like to practice our airs and graces And wait for

the Jellicle Moon to rise

Jellicle Cats develop slowly Jellicle cats are not too big

Jellicle cats are roly-poly We know how to dance a Gavotte and

a jig Until the Jellicle Moon appears Make our toilette and take

our repose Jellicles wash behind their ears Jellicles dry

between their toes

Jellicle cats are white and black Jellicle cats are of moderate

size Jellicles jump like a jumping jack Jellicle cats have

moonlit eyes

We're quiet enough in the morning hours We're quiet enough in

the afternoon Reserving our terpsichorean powers To dance by

the light of the Jellicle Moon

Jellicle cats are black and white Jellicle cats as we said are

small If it happens to be a stormy night We will practice a caper

or two in the hall

If it happens the sun is shining bright You would say we had

nothing to do at all We are resting and saving ourselves to be

right For the Jellicle Moon and the Jellicle Ball

Jellicle cats come out tonight Jellicle cats come one come all

The Jellicle Moon is shining bright Jellicles come to the

Jellicle Ball

回忆之一 Memory No.1

Silence (Midnight), not a sound from the pavement Has the moon

lost her memory, She is smiling alone In the lamplight the

withered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan.

Every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning Someone

mutters and the street lamp gutters, And soon it will be morning.

Memory. All alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days

I was beautiful then. I remember the time I knew what happiness

was, Let the memory live again. GRIZABELLA第二次出现，带来了这首MEMORY，只唱了一部分，不过是为后面做铺垫。

幸福时刻 The Moments of Happiness

The moments of happiness

We had the experience but missed the meaning And approach to

the meaning restores the experience. In a different form beyond

any meaning we can assign to happiness The past experience

revived in the meaning Is not the experience of one life only

But of many generations Not forgetting something that is

probably quite ineffable

Moonlight Turn your face to the moonlight Let your memory lead

you Open up enter in If you find there the meaning of what

happiness is Then a new life will begin

剧院猫格斯 Gus the Theatre Cat

Gus is the cat at the theatre door His name as I ought to have

told you before Is really Asparagus, but that's such 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 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 a 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 . . .

格罗泰格的最后一战 Growltiger's Last Stand

Growltiger was a Bravo Cat, who travelled on a barge: In fact

he was the roughest cat that ever roamed at large. From

Gravesend up to Oxford he pursued his evil aims, Rejoicing in

his title of the "Terror of the Thames".

His manners and appearance did not calculate to please; His coat

was torn and seedy, it was baggy at the knees; One ear was

somewhat missing, no need to tell you why, And he scowled upon

a hostile world from one forbidding eye.

The cottagers of Rotherhithe knew something of his fame; At

Hammersmith and Putney, people shuddered at his name. They

would fortify the hen house, lock up the silly goose, When the

rumor ran along the shore: Growltiger's om the loose!

Woe to the weak canary, that fluttered from its cage; Woe to

the pampered Pekinese, that faced Growltiger's rage; Woe the

bristly Bandicoot, that lurks on foreign ships, And woe to any

Cat with whom Growltiger came to grips!

But most to Cats of foreign race his hatred had been vowed; To

Cats of foreign name and race, no quarter was allowed. The

Persian and the Siamese regarded him with fear -- Because it

was a Siamese had mauled his missing ear.

Now on a peaceful summer night, all nature seemed at play, The

tender moon was shining bright, the barge at Molesey lay. All

in the balmy moonlight it lay rocking on the tide -- And

Growltiger was disposed to show his sentimental side.

His bucko mate, Grumbuskin, long since had disappeared, For to

the Bell at Hampton he had gone to wet his heard; And his bosun,

Tumblebrutus, he too had stol'n away -- In the yard behind the

Lion he was prowling for his prey.

In the forepeak of the vessel, Growltiger sate alone,

Concentrating his attention on the Lady Griddlebone. And his

raffish crew were sleeping in their barrels and their bunks --

As the Siamese came creeping in their sampans and their junks.

Growltiger had no eye or ear for aught but Griddlebone, And the

Lady seemed enraptured by his manly baritone, Disposed to

relaxation, and awaiting no surprise -- But the moonlight shone

reflected from a thousand bright blue eyes.

And closer still and closer the sampans circled round, And yet

from all the enemy there was not heard a sound. The lovers sang

their last duet, in danger of their lives -- For the foe was

armed with toasting forks and cruel carving knives.

Then Genghis gave the signal to his fierce Mongolian horde; With

a frightful burst of fireworks the Chinks they swarmed aboard.

Abandoning their sampans, and their pullaways and junks, They

battened down the hatches on the crew within their bunks.

Then Griddlebone she gave a screech, for she was badly skeered;

I am sorry to admit it, but she quickly disappeared. She

probably escaped with ease, I'm sure she was not drowned -- But

a serried ring of flashing steel Growltiger did surround.

The ruthless foe presssed forward, in stubborn rank on rank;

Growltiger to his vast surprise was forced to walk the plank.

He who a hundred victims had driven to that drop, At the end

of all his crimes was forced to go ker-flip, ker-flop.

Oh there was joy in Wapping when the news flew through the land;

At Maidenhead and Henley there was dancing on the Strand. Rats

were roasted whole in Brentford and Victoria Dock, And a day

of celebration was commanded in Bangkok!

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

比利·麦考尔的叙事诗 The Ballad of Billy M'Caw

Oh, how well I remember the Old Bull and Bush Where we used to

go down on a Saturday night Where when anything happened, it

come with a rush For the boss, Mr. Clark, he was very polite

A very nice house, from basement to garret A very nice house

Ah, but it was the parrot The parrot, the parrot named Billy

McCaw That brought all those folks to the bar Ah, he was the

life of the bar

Of a Saturday night, we was all feeling bright And Lily La Rose,

the barmaid that was She'd say, "Billy, Billy McCaw! Come give

us, come give us a dance on the bar!" And Billy would dance on

the bar And Billy would dance on the bar And then we'd feel balmy,

in each eye a tear And emotion would make us all order more beer

Lily, she was a girl what had brains in her 'ead She wouldn't

have nothing, no not that much said If it come to an argument

or a dispute She'd settle it offhand with the toe of her boot

Or as likely as not put a fist through your eye Or when we was

happy and just a bit dry Or when we was thirsty and just a bit

sad, She would rap on the bar with that corkscrew she 'ad

And say "Billy, Billy McCaw! "Come give us a tune on your

pastoral flute!" And Billy'd strike up on his pastoral flute

And Billy'd strike up on his pastoral flute And then we'd feel

balmy, in each eye a tear And emotion would make us all order

more beer

"Billy, Billy McCaw! Come give us a tune on your moley guitar!"

And Billy'd strike up on his moley guitar And Billy'd strike

up on his moley guitar And then we'd feel balmy, in each eye

a tear And emotion would make us all order more beer

Billy, Billy McCaw! Come give us a tune on your moley guitar

Ah! He was the life of the bar.

这是我最喜欢一段音乐。旋律优美抒情，婉转动人，歌者的嗓音极富表现力。

斯金伯山克斯 Skimbleshanks

Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat the cat of the railway train

There's a whisper down the line at eleven thirty-nine When the

night mail's ready to depart Saying, "Skimble, where is Skimble?

Has he gone to hunt the thimble? We must find him or the train

can't start!" All the guards and all the porters and the

stationmaster's daughters Would be searching high and low

Saying, "Skimble, where is Skimble? For unless he's very nimble

Then the night mail just can't go!" At eleven forty-two with

the signal overdue And the passengers all frantic to a man

That's when I would appear and I'd saunter to the rear I'd been

busy in the luggage van! Then gave one flash of his glass-green

eyes And the signal went "All clear!" They'd be off at last for

the northern part of the Northern Hemisphere

Skimbleshanks, the railway cat, the cat of the railway train

You might say that by and large it was me who was in charge Of

the Sleeping Car Express From the driver and the guards to the

bagmen playing cards I would supervise them all more or less

Down the corridor he paces and examines all the faces Of the

travelers in the first and the third He established control by

a regular patrol And he'd know at once if anything occurred He

would watch you without winking and he saw what you were

thinking And it's certain that he didn't approve Of hilarity

and riot, so the folk were very quiet When Skimble was about

and on the move You could play no pranks with Skimbleshanks He's

a cat that couldn't be ignored So nothing went wrong on the

Northern Mail When Skimbleshanks was aboard

It was very pleasant when they'd foud their little den With

their name wrtten up on the door And the berth was very neat

with a newly folded sheet on And not a speck of dust on the floor

There was every sort of light you make it dark or bright And

a button you could turn to make a breeze And a funny little basin

you're supposed to wash your face in And a crank to shut the

window should you sneeze Then the guard looked in politely and

would ask you very brightly Do you like your morning tea weak

or strong But I was just behind him and was ready to remind him

For Skimble won't let anything go wrong When they crept into

their cozy berth and pulled the counterpane They ought to

reflect that it was very nice To know that they wouldn't be

bothered by mice They can leave all that to the Railway Cat The

cat of the railway train

Skimbleshanks the railway cat the cat of the railway train In

the watches of the night I was always fresh and bright Every

now and then I'd have a cup of tea With perhaps a drop of scotch

while I was keeping on the watch Only stopping here and there

to catch a flea They were fast asleep at Crewe And so they never

knew that I was walking up and down the station They were

sleeping all the while I was busy at Carlisle Where I met the

stationmaster with elation

They might see me at Dumfries if I summoned the police If there

was anything they ought to know about When they got to

Gallowgate, there they did not have to wait For Skimbleshanks

will help them to get out And he gives you a wave of his long

brown tail Which says, "I'll see you again" You'll meet without

fail on the Midnight Mail The cat of the railway train

You'll meet without fail on the Midnight Mail The cat of the

railway train 心情在经历了很长时间的压抑之后，终于有一个阳光人物出场了。火车猫似乎永远是快乐的，我很喜欢这种性格。而且他对差事还很负责任。

马卡维提 Macavity

Macavity's a mystery cat: He's called the Hidden Paw For he's

a master criminal who can defy the law He's the bafflement of

Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair For when they reach

the scene of crime Macavity's not there!

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity He's broken

every human law, he breaks the law of gravity His powers of

levitation would make a fakir stare And when you reach the scene

of crime Macavity's not there You may seek him in the basement,

you may look up in the air But I tell you once and once again

Macavity's not there!

Macavity's a ginger cat, he's very tall and thin You'd know him

if you saw him for his eyes are sunken in His brow is deeply

lined in thought, his head is highly domed His coat is dusty

from neglect, his whiskers are uncombed He sways his head from

side to side with movements like a snake And when you think he's

half asleep, he's always wide awake

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity He's a fiend

in feline shape, monster of depravity You may meet him in a

by-street, you may see him in the square, But when a crime's

discovered then Macavity's not there!

He's outwardly respectable, I know he cheats at cards And his

footprints are not found in any files of Scotland Yard's And

when the larder's looted or the jewel case is rifled Or when

the milk is missing or another Peke's been stifled Or the

greenhouse glass is broken and the trellis past repair There's

the wonder of the thing Macavity's not there!

Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity There never

was a cat of such deceitfulness and suavity He always has an

alibi, and one or two to spare Whatever time the deed took place

Macavity wasn't there!

And they say that all the cats whose wicked deeds are widely

known I might mention Mungojerrie, I might mention Griddlebone

Are nothing more than agents for the cat who all the time Just

controls the operations: the Napoleon of Crime! Macavity,

Macavity, there's no one like Macavity He's a fiend in feline

shape, a monster of depravity You may meet him in a by-street,

you may see him in the square But when a crime's discovered then

Macavity, Macavity Macavity, Macavity When a crime's

discovered then Macavity's not there!

Macavity's not there! We have to find 这段音乐是全剧最恐怖的。塑造了一个来去无踪的坏蛋形象。Old

Deuteronomy被抓走了，舞会无法继续进行。

神奇的密斯达弗利斯先生 The Magical Mr. Mistoffelees

You ought ask Mr. Mistoffelees The original Conjuring Cat The

greatest magicians have something to learn From Mr.

Mistoffolees Conjuring Turn

And you'll all say: Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so

clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees?

He is quiet, he is small, he is black From the ears to the tip

of his tail He can creep through the tiniest crack He can walk

on the narrowest rail He can pick any card from a pack He is

equally cunning with dice He is always deceiving you into

believing That he's only hunting for mice

He can play any trick with a cork Or a spoon and a bit of fish

paste And if you look for a knife or a fork And you think it

is merely misplaced You have seen it one moment and then it is

gone! But you find it next week lying on the lawn

And we all say: Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever

as magical Mr. Mistoffelees? Oh! Well, I never! Was there ever

a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees? Oh! Well, I never!

Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr. Mistoffelees? Oh!

Well, I never! Was there ever a cat so clever as magical Mr.

Mistoffelees?

My manner is vague and aloof You would think there was nobody

shyer But voice has been heard on the roof When I was curled

up by the fire And have sometimes been heard by the fire When

I was about on the roof At least they all heard that somebody

purred Which is uncontestable proof of my singular magical

powers And I've known the family to call me in from the garden

for hours While I was asleep in the hall

And not long ago, this phenomenal cat Produced seven kittens

right out of a hat!

回忆之二 Memory No.2

Daylight, see the dew on a sunflower And a rose that is fading

Roses whither away Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face

to the dawn I am waiting for the day

Now Old Deuteronomy just before dawn Through a silence you feel

you could cut with a knife Announces the cat who can now be

reborn And come back to a different Jellicle life

Memory, turn your face to the moonlight Let your memory lead

you Open up, enter in If you find there the meaning of what

happiness is Than a new life will begin

Memory, all alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days

I was beautiful then I remember a time I knew what happiness

was Let the memory live again

Burnt out ends of smoky days The stale cold smell of morning

The streetlamp dies, another night is over Another day is

dawning

Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise I must think of the new

life And I mustn't give in When the dawn comes tonight will be

a memory too And the new day will begin

Sunlight, through the trees in summer Endless masquerading Like

a flower as the dawn is breaking The memory is fading

Touch me, it's so easy to leave me All alone with the memory

Of my days in the sun If you touch me, you'll understand what

happiness is Look, a new day has begun

这应该是全剧的最高潮，GRIZABELLA又出现了，她高歌了一曲MEMORY，回忆唤醒了每一只猫的爱。

通往九重天之路 The Journey to the Heaviside Layer

Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside

Layer Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up, up, up, up to the

Heaviside Layer Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up up up up

to the Heaviside Layer Up, up, up past the Russell Hotel Up,

up, up, up to the Heaviside layer Up, up, up past the Jellicle

Moon Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside Layer Up, up, up past the

Jellicle moon Up, up, up, up to the Heaviside Layer The mystical

divinity of unashamed felinity Round the cathedral rang 'Vivat'

Life to the everlasting cat! GRIZABELLA最终得以升上天堂，这个结果应该是众望所归的。我流下了眼泪，我觉得自己的生活最近十分缺乏感动。

对待猫的态度 The Ad-dressing of Cats

You've heard of several kinds of cat And my opinion now is that

You should need no interpreter to understand our character

You've learned enough to take the view That cats are very much

like you You've seen us both at work and games And learnt about

our proper names Our habits and habitat But how would you

ad-dress a cat? So first, your memory I'll jog And say: a cat

is not a dog So first, your memory I'll jog And say: a cat is

not a dog With cats, some say one rule is true Don't speak 'til

you are spoken to Myself, I do not hold with that I say you should

ad-dress a cat But always bear in mind that he resents

familiarity You bow and taking off your hat, ad-dress him in

this form, "O' Cat!" Before a cat will condescend To treat you

as a trusted friend A little token of esteem is needed, like

a dish of cream And you might now and then supply Some caviar

or Straussburg pie Some potted grouse or salmon paste He's sure

to have his personal taste And so in time you reach your aim

And call him by his name A cat's entitled to expect These

evidences of respect So this is this and that is that And there's

how you ad-dress a cat A cat's entitled to expect These

evidences of respect So this is this and that is that And there's

how you ad-dress a cat

全剧终了，结局很完满。Old Deuteronomy张开双臂，屹立在了高处。形象酷似耶稣。他提醒观众要与猫平等相处。

猫的故事落下了帷幕，可谓精彩纷呈。 完 THE END
