You Gotta Get a Good Style
To the tune of 'You Gotta Get A Gimmick' from 'Gypsy', three of
favourite toms from CATS are extolling their own virtues.


ALL:
You can pull all your fur out,
Til they take your purr out.
Yowl til your throats red and raw.
But you gotta get a good style,
If you want the ladies' paw...

You can sacrifice your dinner,
Get a little thinner,
Bound in the pound til you're dead.
But you gotta get a good style,
If you wanna get ahead!

Tugger:
They can "Uh!" They can "Uh" They can "Uh, uh, uh!"
And they can "uh" again.
Me, I "Uh" and I "Uh" and I "Uh, uh, uh",
But I do it with a mane!

*does a raunchy dance with his mane*

Once I was a shy boy,
Now I'm just a queen's toy
With my fur all up in a ruff!
You gotta have a hot look,
If you want the ladies love!

Macavity:
All that "uh!" And the "uh!" and the "Uh, uh, uh!"
When he gives that fuzz a twitch.
Me, I "uh!" and I "uh!" and I "uh, uh, uh!",
But I do it with a switch!

*performs a hair-raising light show*

I'm electrifyin'
And I ain't even tryin'
Just show my face and all the gals scream!
You gotta be the bad guy,
To be the cat that gets the cream!

Munkustrap:
He can "Uh!" He can "Uh!" and he can "uh, uh, uh."
It goes for di'frent types.
Me, I "uh!" and I "uh!" and I "Uh, uh, uh!"
But I do it with my...stripes!

*does a kinky, stripey dance*

You don't need big mane,
Electrics and some pain
Just like those other idiots because,
Once you've had a tabby,
Every other breeds a loss!

ALL:
Do something special,
Anything that's special.
Be as dif'rent as dif'rent can be.
You gotta get a new style,
To be more than a cat pile,
Just take a look at us and you'll see...

Macavity:
If you wanna beat 'em,
Smack 'em when you meet 'em.

Munkustrap:
If you want the dames hot,
Get some stripes, not a spot

Tugger:
If you wanna have fun,
You gotta be the maned one.

ALL:
Just get yourself a good style
And you, too, can be a stud!
