There once was a cat with a hungry belly The name of the cat was Whiskers Jelly His throat was dry and his bowl was bare Meow my furry cats, meow Soon may the kitty-man come With birds and mice and some tasty nums One day when the critters come We'll eat 'til our bellies are full Well, Jelly got his boys and they gathered 'round They scattered seeds from a sack they found In hopes the seeds they spread on the ground Will bring small critters aboot Soon may the kitty-man come With birds and mice and some tasty nums One day when the critters come We'll eat 'til our bellies are full Well, the gang was bored and morale had dipped 'Til one of the seeds grew green catnip They sniffed and they snacked and they all got ripped They all had a meow that night Soon may the kitty-man come With birds and mice and some tasty nums One day when the critters come We'll eat 'til our bellies are full Well, their heads were hung when the morn was nigh The nip was strong and they all got high Their bellies were shrunk and their bowls still dry Oh, bring us some mice today Soon may the kitty-man come With birds and mice and some tasty nums One day when the critters come We'll eat 'til our bellies are full
