You ought to know Mr Mistoffelees	A
The Original Conjuring Cat	B
There can be no doubt about that	B
Please listen to me and don't scoff All his	A
Inventions are off his own bat	B
There's no such Cat in the metropolis	A
He holds all the patent monopolies	A
For performing suprising illusions	A
And creating eccentric confusions	A
At prestidigitation	C
And at legerdemain	D
He'll defy examination	C
And deceive you again	E
The greatest magicians have something to learn	F
From Mr Mistoffelees' Conjuring Turn	F
Presto	G
Away we go	G
And we all say OH	G
Well I never	H
Was there ever	H
A Cat so clever	H
As Magical Mr Mistoffelees	A
	-
He is quiet and small he is black	I
From his ears to the tip of his tail	J
He can creep through the tiniest crack	I
He can walk on the narrowest rail	J
He can pick any card from a pack	I
He is equally cunning with dice	A
He is always deceiving you into believing	K
That he's only hunting for mice	A
He can play any trick with a cork	L
Or a spoon and a bit of fish paste	M
If you look for a knife or a fork	L
And you think it is merely misplaced	M
You have seen it one moment and then it is gawn	F
But you'll find it next week lying out on the lawn	F
	-
And we all say OH	G
Well I never	H
Was there ever	H
A Cat so clever	H
As Magical Mr Mistoffelees	A
	-
His manner is vague and aloof	N
You would think there was nobody shyer	H
But his voice has been heard on the roof	N
When he was curled up by the fire	H
And he's sometimes been heard by the fire	H
When he was about on the roof	N
At least we all heard that somebody purred	M
Which is incontestable proof	N
Of his singular magical powers	A
And I have known the family to call	O
Him in from the garden for hours	A
While he was asleep in the hall	O
And not long ago this phenomenal Cat	M
Produced seven kittens right out of a hat	M
And we all said OH	G
Well I never	H
Did you ever	H
Know a Cat so clever	H
As Magical Mr Mistoffelees	A
