Lyrics for Song: The Siamese Cat Song
Lyrics for Album: Classics & Collectables [2005]



We are Siamese if you please (meow)

we are Siamese if you don't please (meow)

now we lookin over our new domicile

if we like we stay for mabey quite a while



(whisper:) do you see that thing swimming round and round?

yesssssssss mabey we could reaching in and make it drown

if we sneak in not to fool it carefully

there will be a head for you a tail for me



(whisper continued...) Do you hear what I hear? (grrrrrr)

a baby cry

where we finding baby there are milk nearby

if we look in baby buggy there could be

plenty milk for you and also some for me
