  • Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer we’re a notorious couple of cats
    As knockabout clowns, quick change comedians
    Tight-rope walkers and acrobats
    We have an extensive reputation
    Make our home in Victoria Grove
    This is merely our center of operation
    For we’re incurably given to rove
    We are very well-known in Cornwall Gardens
    In Launceston Place, and in Kensington Square
    We have really a little more reputation
    Than a couple of cats can very well bear
    If the area window is found ajar
    And the basement looks like a field of war
    If a tile or two comes loose on the roof
    Which presently fails to be waterproof
    If the drawers are pulled out from bedroom chests
    And you can’t find one of your winter vests
    Or after supper one of the girls
    Suddenly misses her Woolworth pearls
    Tthe family will say, 'It's that horrible cat!
    Was it Mungojerrie or Rumpleteazer!'
    And most of the time they leave it at that

    Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer have a very unusual gift of gab
    We’re highly efficient cat burgulars
    As well and remarkably smart at a smash and grab
    We make our home in Victoria Grove
    We have no regular occupation
    We’re plausible fellows who like to engage
    A friendly policeman in conversation

    When the family assembles for Sunday dinner
    With their minds made up that they won’t get thinner on
    Argentine joint, potatoes and greens
    Then the cook will appear from behind the scenes
    And say in a voice that was broken with sorrow
    "I'm afraid you must wait and have dinner tomorrow “
    The joint has gone from the oven like that!"
    Tthe family will say, 'It's that horrible cat!
    Was it Mungojerrie or Rumpleteazer!'
    And most of the time they leave it at that
    Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer have a wonderful way
    Of working together
    And some of the time you would say it was luck
    And some of the time you would say it was weather
    We go through the house like a hurricane
    And no sober person can take his oath
    Was it Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer?
    Or could you have sworn that it mightn't be both?
    When you hear a dining room smash
    Or up from the pantry there comes a loud crash
    Or down from the library there comes a loud ping
    From a vase which is commonly said to be Ming
    Then the family would say: "Now which was which cat?
    It was Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer
    And there's nothing at all to be done about that!"
