[00:18.785]Mungojerrie
[00:20.015]And Rumpelteazer
[00:21.116]We're a notorious couple of cats
[00:23.616]As knockabout clowns
[00:24.998]Quick-change comedians
[00:26.403]Tight-rope walkers
[00:28.217]And acrobats
[00:29.285]We have an extensive reputation
[00:31.829]We make our home in Victoria Grove
[00:34.669]This is merely our centre of operation
[00:37.496]For we are incurably given to rove
[00:45.003]We are very well known in Cornwall Gardens
[00:48.185]In Launceston Place and in Kensington Square
[00:50.685]We have really a little more reputation
[00:53.495]Than a couple of cats can very well bear
[01:00.729]If the area window is found ajar
[01:03.518]And the bedroom looks like a field of war
[01:06.531]If a tile or two comes loose on the roof
[01:09.361]Which presently fails to be waterproof
[01:11.550]If the drawers are pulled out from the bedroom chests
[01:14.549]And you can't find one of your winter vests
[01:17.201]Or after supper one of the girls
[01:20.466]Suddenly misses her Woolworth pearls
[01:23.295]The family will say
[01:25.582]"It's that horrible cat!
[01:28.429]It was Mungojerrie
[01:32.337]Or Rumpelteazer"
[01:35.626]And most of the time, they leave it at that
[02:09.815]Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer
[02:12.448]Have a very unusual gift of the gab
[02:14.433]We're highly efficient cat burglars as well
[02:16.781]And remarkably smart at a smash and grab
[02:19.548]We make our home in Victoria Grove
[02:22.111]We have no regular occupation
[02:24.988]We are plausible fellows who like to engage
[02:27.335]A friendly policeman in conversation
[02:34.784]When the family assembles for Sunday dinner
[02:37.436]Their minds made up that they won't get thinner
[02:39.942]On Argentine joint, potatoes and greens
[02:42.115]Then the cook would appear from behind the scenes
[02:45.282]And say in a voice that is broken with sorrow
[02:47.303]"I'm afraid you must wait and have dinner tomorrow
[02:50.186]For the joint has gone from the oven like that!"
[02:53.699]Then the family will say
[02:55.915]"It's that horrible cat!
[02:58.611]It was Mungojerrie
[03:01.931]Or Rumpelteazer"
[03:04.413]And most of the time they leave it at that
[03:06.663]Mungojerrie
[03:08.169]And Rumpelteazer
[03:09.359]Have a wonderful way of working together
[03:11.684]And some of the time you would say it was luck
[03:13.952]And some of the time you would say it was weather
[03:16.574]We'd go through the house like a hurricane
[03:19.076]And no sober person could take his oath
[03:21.559]"Was it Mungojerrie
[03:22.867]Or Rumpelteazer?
[03:24.059]Or could you have sworn that it might have been both?"
[03:26.116]And when you hear a dining room smash
[03:29.077]Or up from the pantry, there comes a loud crash
[03:31.233]Or down from the library, there comes a loud ping
[03:33.793]From the vase which that was commonly said to be Ming
[03:36.785]And the family will say
[03:38.867]"Now which was which cat?"
[03:41.676]"It was Mungojerrie
[03:44.330]And Rumpelteazer
[03:47.479]And there's nothing at all to be done about that"
